Last week, given new polls showing Kirsten Gillibrand pulling ahead of Republican incumbent John Sweeney, RCP Politics noted: "We have considerable more confidence in the Siena College survey that indicates Rep. Sweeney up 14 points than the RT Strategies/CD poll that shows Sweeney trailing by 13 points." Never mind that sample in the RT Strategies/CD poll was twice the size of the Seina.
Two new polls, however, confirm Gillibrand's lead, though by single, not double digits. Time to move this upstate district out of the "Leans Republican" category. What was it that RCP stood for, anyway?
