In a previous CUPVF Indiana Senate Poll released in March, Indiana State Treasurer Richard Mourdock was losing to Richard Lugar, 45 percent to 29 percent.

“Indiana Republican primary voters are rejecting the fiscally irresponsible positions Dick Lugar has taken throughout his career,” said David N. Bossie, President of Citizens United. “The wind is clearly at the back of Richard Mourdock in the final stretch of the campaign. Hoosiers are ready for new leadership in the United States Senate.”
