Linda McMahon defeated former Rep. Chris Shays in the Republican primary in Connecticut. Linda, who has already spent at least $12 million for her campaign, will now face Democratic Rep. Christopher Murphy this November for Sen. Joseph Lieberman’s seat, who is retiring.
Murphy has led Linda in recent hypothetical polls, including topping McMahon by 8 points (50%-42% with 8% undecided) in a PPP poll late last month.
