The telephone survey of 817 likely voters was taken Oct. 27-29 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.
According to the poll, McConnell leads 47-42, with 9 percent of voters saying they are still undecided. Two percent of voters said they favor other candidates — though there are no other candidates in the race.
