Monday, June 28, 2004 -
State Attorney General Ken Salazar would defeat either of the Republican candidates running for Colorado's open U.S. Senate seat if the election were today, according to a poll for The Denver Post.
Salazar leads brewery executive Pete Coors and former Congressman Bob Schaffer in potential head-to-head contests this November.
But in a battle between the best-known candidates - Salazar and Coors - the lead of 7 percentage points is close enough to make the race highly competitive.
Against Schaffer, Salazar leads by 14 percentage points.
