Mourdock Leads Lugar in New Poll 42% to 41%

INDIANAPOLIS (April 18, 2012) – Richard Mourdock’s campaign released the results of a poll that was conducted April 16th – 17th by respected Republican polling firm McLaughlin & Associates showing Mourdock leading Lugar 42 % to 41% among likely Republican Primary voters.

“These poll results confirm what I have been hearing on the campaign trail for that past several months. After 36 years, Republican Primary voters believe Senator Lugar is out of touch with their concerns and ready to elect a true conservative to the U.S. Senate.

“After the millions of dollars in personal negative attack ads by Senator Lugar and his Super PACS against me, Hoosier Republicans aren’t buying what they are trying to sell.

“With 20 days until the election, we are well-positioned for a victory on May 8th,” stated Treasurer Mourdock.
