The Democratic polling firm Public Policy Polling (PPP) has an online poll asking readers which district the firm should poll next. Two of the options are New Mexico’s 1st and 2nd Congressional Districts.
Here are the descriptions of the districts by PPP:
NM-2: Harry Teague won last year when Steve Pearce unsuccessfully tried for the Senate…will Pearce be able to take his old seat back?NM-1: Martin Heinrich won by a pretty solid margin last year, but will it hold up without Barack Obama on the ballot?
The only announced candidate running against Heinrich Republican Jon Barela.
While PPP is a left-leaning firm, it does have a great track record, especially the 2009 races — except for New York’s 23rd Congressional District, where PPP admitted it “made a poor judgment call by not just killing it when [Republican candidate Dede] Scozzafava dropped out and then endorsed [Democratic candidate Bill] Owens.”
