West Hartford, Conn., September 28, 2010 – Linda McMahon for Senate 2010 spokesman Ed Patru released the following statement in reaction to today's Quinnipiac University poll:
"With only five weeks remaining until Election Day, the seemingly insurmountable 41-point lead Dick Blumenthal held in January has slipped to a statistically insignificant margin because, even as voter anxiety about the economy continues to intensify, Mr. Blumenthal is calling for a national energy tax that hits middle class families and small business tax hikes that will further slow Connecticut's economy and cost jobs.
"This election offers a choice between the right kind of experience and the kind of experience that has gotten us where we are today. While Linda is promising to put her 30 years of real world job creation experience to work for Connecticut, Dick Blumenthal is fighting for tax increases that will take at least $13 billion out of Connecticut's economy and send it to Washington, and a national energy tax that will raise electricity prices by an average of $925 per household and add 68 cents to the price of gallon of gas.
"After nearly four decades in government, Dick Blumenthal just doesn't understand the impact his job-killing policies will have on Connecticut. It's becoming clearer by the day that Connecticut voters recognize we cannot change the trajectory of Washington's misguided policies by electing another tax-and-spend career politician."
