Nelson increased his ratio of victory against Harris in the latest poll. Nelson leads by a staggering 33 points. The last one a few days ago had him at 60%-33%. I believe this is probably the largest lead he's had so far in any poll. A few others nailed him at a 33% lead, but both of their overall points of support were lower.

A slight worry is that Harris now only has 37% support in the Republican Primary, but no one else is pulling anything close to that. A little more than 40% of Republicans don't know who they'll choose. The others running are complete no-names, but I honestly think Nelson would do worse against a no-name than against Harris - he'd still win, most likely, but I haven't seen any other polls putting Nelson against someone other than Harris, besides the Tommy Franks one, and that one he lead, surprisingly, but only by a few points. The latest surveyusa has his approval rating at just 42%. Christ. Martinez is down there at 43% too - http://www.surveyusa.com/50State2006/100USSenatorApproval060523State.htm

Guess we'll see how this unfolds. Everyone pray for Harris to win the primary.
