Re: Results of Survey on New Hampshire Senate Race

Date: September 15, 2014
______________________________________________________________________

On Sept. 9, 10 and 11, Kiley & Company interviewed a representative sample of
600 New Hampshire voters likely to cast ballots in the November election. Respondents
were randomly selected from a NH voter file and were interviewed on both landlines and
cell phones. The party breakdown of the sample is: 30% Repub; 27% Dem; and 43%
Ind/Other. The margin of error for these results is +/- 4%.

Key Findings

Jeanne Shaheen is maintaining her majority-level lead over Scott Brown.

Shaheen leads Brown, 51% to 43% the same eight-point lead we saw in
our early September survey. (50% to 42%)
Shaheen leads by 24 points among women; Brown leads by 10 points among
men.
Shaheen leads, 91% to 7%, among Democrats and by 50% to 42% among
Independents. Brown leads, 78% to 16%, among Republicans.

Shaheens ratings are positive, while Browns are negative.

Shaheens ratings are 50-45, compared to Browns 38-51.
Among women, Shaheens ratings are +18 and Browns are -24.

Shaheens biggest margins: protecting women; and being committed to
NH.

In direct comparisons on key traits, Shaheen is overwhelmingly seen as the
better choice on: protecting the rights of women (+42) and being committed
to New Hampshire (+37).
Shaheen is ahead on all other positive attributes, including: will protect
Medicare/SS (+18); really cares about people like me (+18); and is someone I
can trust (+15).
Browns only margin over Shaheen is on a negative dimension: being too
close to wealthy special interests (-24).
