Bloomberg, Corzine Lead Polls

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg leads Democratic Comptroller Bill Thompson 53 to 35 percent in the New York mayoral race, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Monday. Bloomberg leads in every borough. One state over, New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine is beating Republican Christopher Christie 42 to 33 percent, according to a Suffolk University poll released Monday—7 percent of votes went to a struggling independent, Christopher Daggett. “The bottom line is that, if this trend holds, it will be an amazing comeback for Jon Corzine,” said a Suffolk University director.
