Poll-itics: Obama Senate replacement edition

By GottaLaff

Tammy's second?

A new Zogby poll in Illinois finds Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) is the favorite among possible replacements to fill the U.S. Senate seat to be vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.

"The survey shows that, given a choice of 10 possible candidates, 21% think Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) should appoint Jackson to the seat when Obama leaves it vacant to ascend to the presidency, far more than the rest of the field. Tammy Duckworth (D), a former congressional candidate from a suburban Chicago district, is the only other potential candidate to win double-digit support -- 14% said she should be appointed."
Well, it is Zogby, after all.
