Another Poll for Bloomberg
November 2nd, 2009
If the election were today, Mayor Michael Bloomberg would land a third term by 50 to 38 percent with 10 percent undecided, according to a new poll from Quinnipiac University.
Those figures are a small improvement for Thompson compared to last week’s survey, which had the comptroller at 35 percent, but he is still lagging far behind the mayor. In today’s poll, Thompson did take the lead among Democrats, 48 to 43 percent. Last week’s poll had the Republican/Independent mayor leading among Democrats with 46 percent to Thompson’s 44.
Today will be a final blitz of campaigning for the favored Bloomberg and his underdog opponent. Bloomberg is blazing around the city, hitting up all five boroughs, according to his campaign schedule. He started on the Staten Island ferry this morning and is later visiting small businesses in Manhattan and the Bronx and a subway station in Forest Hills. Thompson started his day at Riverside Church, is then scheduled to head to Starrett City in Brooklyn and finally end back in Manhattan.
