Ca-04: Mcclintock Releases His Own Poll

Val Smith for Tom McClintock (9/22-24, likely voters):

Charlie Brown (D): 39
Tom McClintock (R): 47
(MoE: ?4%)

Cute. Conservative Icon Tom McClintock finally releases an internal poll of his race to replace disgraced GOP Rep. John Doolittle, and this one shows the Icon leading by 8 points and splitting Independents by 37-48 in Brown’s favor. The poll’s release comes on the heels of a Research 2000 poll for Daily Kos that showed Brown up by five points, and a Benenson Strategy Group poll from late August that gave Brown a two-point lead.

I don’t know much about Val Smith (the Brown campaign is taking issue with their accuracy), but I think I’d rather trust the polls handled by R2K and Benenson — pollsters with more accomplished track records.

The full polling memo is available below the fold.
