Last week's Eye Poll echoed the results of the Democratic leaning Public Policy Polling in at least one category. Eye readers favored Pete Domenici, Jr. over the rest of the Republican field. Domenici received 36%, Doug Turner 17%, Janice Arnold-Jones 16%, Alan Weh 13%, Susana Martinez 9%, and coming in dead last was Lt. Governor Diane Denish with 8% (read the results here).
It's not overly surprising that Domenici lead the field in our unscientific Eye Poll due to his superior name ID and his campaign's get out the vote effort late last week. What was interesting was how poorly Diane Denish fared.
The Eye Poll skews right, but Denish certainly commands comparable name ID to Domenici, Jr. and one would think that based on name ID alone she would have made it up the polling ladder a bit.
This week we're going to take a look at the "generic ballot." When faced with a choice between candidates that you don't know, which one are you most likely to vote for? Don't forget to vote!
----- Post Script -----
We apologize for misspelling Lt. Governor Diane Denish's last name in our Eye Poll. Unfortunately, there's no way to correct it on the poll but we don't think that readers or voters were confused by the addition of an "n" to the Lt. Governor's first name.

I've had it with voting for anyone who is a father, son, cousin brother, sister type candidate in New Mexico. When I think of Domenici, and think of our current state of the country, why should we be sold on the name?
Allen Weh 9% !
Weh contributed heavily to Darren's run for Congress and has now burned the big guy. Guess a big brew -ha-ha broke out at that Republican knuckle F _ _ k last weekend and trader two face Darren is now supporting the queen of Las Cruces, Susan Martinez for Governor.
Judas !!
Beery should take heed, especially if he hears the cock crow three times.
Darren has no friends left.
Oh, except for Ray (maybe)and a hand full of cretins.
Grapevine:
Berry has 'Eye candy'
Who is it?
Who will be the new Chief when Ray retires.
Scuttlebutt says Darren will slide in there.
OR will it be DC Paiz?
Who's "eye candy" ?
So who's Berry's "Baby Ruth"?
C'mon !!
Ask Darren's ex-wife about how loyal he is. If you believe anything Hindi has to say about APD then White really is a "cop's cop".
Beth Paiz.
"baby Ruth" & "eye candy" who the hell is that, and how the hell is Berry tide into that? Unless.....
And we thought Marty was a romeo.
Beth Paiz. It sure ain't Allen Banks
Comments above; Are we talking next chief or eye candy?
Say it ain't true. Allen Banks can't be the 'eye candy'.
