U.S. Rep. Rick Renzi’s 13-point lead over Democrat Ellen Simon in the general election has remained exactly the same since a similar poll this past month, according to Northern Arizona University’s Social Research Lab.

A recent third poll called Majority Watch, using an automatic calling system that’s untested in congressional surveys, finds Simon ahead by five points.

Not surprisingly, Simon’s spokesperson points to the Majority Watch poll as the most accurate, while the Renzi campaign says the NAU polls are the best.
