More on the Massachusetts Special Eelection Senate Race

Earlier I highlighted the polling results of Public Policy Polling that show Republican Scott Brown leading Martha Coakley 48-47.

At the same time, a Rasmussen Reports poll, released last week, shows Democrat Martha Coakley leading Republican challenger Scott Brown by nine points. A Boston Globe poll puts Coakley up by 17 points. What's going on?

Here's Scott Rasmussen's take. And here is what Public Policy Polling has to say.

Bottom line, the Scott Brown voters are more hardcore and more likely to show up at the polls. Martha Coakley supporters are less likely to show up to vote. Who actually does show up will determine who wins. A light turn out favors Brown.

Right now, weather.com is forecasting scattered snow showers for election day, with a high temperature of 34 degrees.
