Public Policy Polling’s latest survey of New Hampshire shows Kelly Ayotte’s numbers flagging in the wake of the FRM scandal.

The poll gives Ayotte 45% of the vote, to 42% for Democratic candidate Paul Hodes. This is within the margin of error and the smallest advantage seen for Ayotte all year, in any poll. The gap between the two candidates has shrunk by four points since PPP’s last survey in April.

Meanwhile in California, incumbent Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer posted a nine point lead over failed Republican CEO Carly Fiorina, 49% to 40%. This represents a six-point expansion of her lead from PPP’s last California poll from May.  

The more voters get to know Kelly Ayotte and Carly Fiorina, the less they like about them.
