Bryan Lentz and Pat Meehan are waging one of the most high-profile Congressional races in the country. And of course they are duking it out right here in the 7th District, looking to succeed Joe Sestak, who toppled Arlen Specter and is now hoping to beat Republican Pat Toomey for a seat in the U.S. Senate.
Most polls have rated the Lentz-Meehan donnybrook about even, but a new survey shows the race might be tilting just a tad to the Republican ledger.
The Cook Political Report, based in Washington, D.C., now moved the 7th race from the “tossup” category to the “lean Republican” field.
That no doubt comes as good news to the Republican former U.S. attorney and former county D.A.
And it no doubt will have the Democrat Lentz turning up the heat as he pushed Meehan to appear with him at a town hall meeting.
This barnburner is going to go down to the wire. And we’ll have the rest of the country looking over our shoulder at the results.
