Former South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds (R) remains on track to pick up the state's open U.S. Senate seat, in the new poll from Monmouth University.
Rounds has 45 percent support, comfortably ahead of Democratic candidate Rick Weiland at 31 percent. Former Republican Sen. Larry Pressler, who is now running again as a centrist independent, has 19 percent. The poll also found that in a two-way race, Rounds would still lead Weiland at 48 percent to 40 percent. The survey of likely voters was conducted from Oct. 24 to 27, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.7 percentage points.
