IN: Donnelly (D) now leads Mourdock (tea party) by 1%, after nosedive by Mourdock

According to www.electoral-vote.com, "pregnancy from rape is intended by God" Richard Mourdock has taken a nosedive in the polls, when he had been ahead. Now, Donnelly is 1 point above him, and so Indiana is "leans Democratic." See the nosedive in red on the graph. Yay!

Considering how strong republicans were doing this is a major change. Please let it hold. Donnelly winning would be a major victory.

Far too many of the people who vote for republicans do so because they agree that the USA, basically, is a theocracy. Especially in a state like Indiana.
