Oklahoma Poll: Inhofe 60%, Rice 19%
U. S. Senator Jim Inhofe appears a solid favorite to win reelection next year if his opponent is liberal Democratic State Senator Andrew Rice, the Tulsa World's new Oklahoma Poll indicates.
"Inhofe's approval rating of 56 percent was essentially unchanged from April, the last time the Oklahoma Poll asked about his job performance," the World reported.
"Inhofe appears to be well on his way to election to a third full term in November despite hopeful sounds from Democrats backing the candidacy of State Senator Andrew Rice.
"Sixty percent of those surveyed favored Inhofe over Rice, with just 19 percent going for the young Democrat and 21 percent undecided. Inhofe was the pick of three of every four Republicans surveyed and nearly half the Democrats. Rice, meanwhile, had the support of only 28 percent of his own party."
