Dahlkemper Leads English in New Poll

According to an article in today's Roll Call ("Democratic poll has Rep. English trailing narrowly," by Shira Toeplitz), Democratic challenger Kathy Dahlkemper is ahead of incumbent Republican Phil English in the 3rd congressional district. It is 41% to 40%, with 19% undecided.

Even though one has to take partisan polls with a grain of salt, this is surprising to me. English is pretty entrenched up in Erie, but the 3rd does have a slight Democratic registration edge. I'm thinking this could be a bellwhether type race. If she pulls off a win here, IMHO, it will be a big sweep for Dems all over the country.
