Here's a summary of Richard Morrison's first internal poll of the race. I'll work on getting more of the poll as information trickles out.
Beattie Hamilton & Staff for the DCCC. Poll details unknown.
DeLay (R) 49
Morrison (D) 39
Fjetland (I) 7
DeLay is running 11 points behind Bush/Cheney (which means Bush is garnering 60 percent in the district). DeLay also runs poorly in Galveston County, which has just been added to the district. The theory is that the county, which was cut in half by DeLay's redistricting, is unhappy with the maneouver -- a theme echoed by every Texas Democrat I have talked to the last week.
Morrison's name ID is apparently non-existant, so there's room to grow.

While any DeLay defeat would be a cherished event, I'd be especially elated if redistricting is the ultimate cause for his demise. 10 points is a lot to overcome, but here's hoping.
