S. Senate remains close with 41% Richard Mourdock, 39% Joe Donnelly, and 3% for Libertarian Andrew Horning. MR completed an analysis of U. S. Senate trial heat results. ndiana's largest media district, ndianapolis, favored Mourdock 40%, Donnelly 38%, Horning 3%, and 19% for undecided. The 26% of voters having a favorable opinion of Donnelly responded Donnelly 79%, Mourdock 15%, Horning 1% and 6% undecided. The 29% of voters having neutral recognition for Donnelly, not holding a favorable or unfavorable opinion, replied Mourdock 43%, Donnelly 28%, Horning 4% and 24% undecided. The 14% of voters unfavorable to Donnelly favored Mourdock 88%. The 27% of voters favorable to Mourdock replied Mourdock 93%, Donnelly 5%, Horning 0%, and 2% undecided. Mourdock neutral opinion voters responded Mourdock 39%, Donnelly 31%, Horning 3% and 27% undecided. The 26% of voters unfavorable to Mourdock favored Donnelly 83%. n the ballot question, Democrats favored Donnelly 83% and Republicans favored Mourdock 80%. Democrats and Republicans were virtually equal in responding undecided, 11% and 12%. ndependent voters favored Mourdock 21%, Donnelly 25%, Horning 14%, while 41% were undecided. Voters under 45 years of age responded Mourdock 42%, Donnelly 34%, Horning 7% and 16% undecided. Voters over 45 years of age replied Mourdock 41%, Donnelly 40%, Horning 1% and 18% undecided. Men favored Mourdock 46%, Donnelly 37%, Horning 4%, and 13% were undecided. Women chose Donnelly 41%, Mourdock 36%, Horning 3%, and 20% were undecided.

S. Senate. As typical, both Democrats and Republicans are relatively polarized favoring the candidate of their party. Although Donnelly holds a 4% current advantage among ndependents, 41% are still undecided. Among voters 45 years of age and older the Senate race is a virtual tie with 18% undecided. However, among the younger voters who make up a smaller percent of those likely to cast ballots in ndiana, Mourdock has an 8% advantage with 16% undecided. t is clear that men favor Mourdock and women favor Donnelly. Such gender gaps based upon political party are typical in American politics. As indicated, men were 13% and women 20% undecided which give Donnelly an advantage. f the Obama campaign is successful in achieving a high young voter turnout again, that could help Mourdock. Although ndependent voters give Donnelly a slight advantage, the same ndependent voters favor the Republican in the Governor's race by a margin of greater than two-to-one. Based on current survey results, Mourdock has the advantage in the election for U.S. Senate because more of the undecided voters identify themselves as Republicans than Democrats, and undecided voters favor the Republican for Governor 33% to 6%. As the election nears, there is good probability that Republicans now undecided as well a few currently favoring Donnelly will favor Mourdock, Mourdock should also do better with ndependents who vote more Republican for Governor.

That advantage definitely helps Pence in the race for Governor, but the Republican advantage does not help Mourdock in the same way. With the Presidential election occurring at the same time as balloting for U. S. Senator, it will be interesting to see if either Obama or Romney provide a coattail effect assisting other candidates in their parties. .
