Republican Sen. Pat Roberts is now getting some actual good news in the Kansas Senate race, with a new poll from CNN that is the first in quite a while to show him ahead of independent candidate Greg Orman — though just barely.
The poll shows Roberts with 49 percent, just edging out Orman at 48 percent. The survey of likely voters was conducted from Oct. 2 to 6, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
