It’s impossible to gauge such polls, but the hard part to believe in this one is that Renner hasn’t moved in the past two months. That’s not right. Does it mean that Renner was as close as his last poll? Not necessarily, but Weller is at 49% favorability-just barely under 50%. Renner has to run the table, so help him out.
