FL-Sen: Billionaire Jeff Greene (D) is up with an attack ad against primary rival Rep. Kendrick Meek (D) calling for an ethics investigation of Meek's ties to an indicted real estate developer...in the Washington, D.C. market. It looks like he's trying to persuade members of the House Ethics and Oversight Committee to take up the case (an extreme longshot), but wouldn't it have been a smarter move to air it in the state where all the voters are? But then again, he can probably afford both.
In other news, Marco Rubio (R) is facing foreclosure on a home in Tallahassee that he owns with state Rep. David Rivera (R), who is running for Congress in Florida's 25th district. Rubio's campaign said the issue has been resolved in court.
SC-Sen: The South Carolina Democratic Party rejected Vic Rawl's challenge to the results of the Democratic primary, finding no evidence of foulplay or malfunction. This means that Alvin Greene (D) will carry the Democratic torch against Sen. Jim DeMint (R) in the general election. Good luck with that.
MN-Gov: A new Survey USA poll shows likely GOP nominee state Rep. Tom Emmer (R) in a tight race with any of the top three Democrats running. Former Sen. Mark Dayton (D) leads Emmer 38% to 35%, while Emmer edges state House Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher (D) 35% to 33% and tops state Rep. Matt Entenza (D) 37% to 33%. In the Democratic primary, Dayton holds a 13-point lead over Kelliher, 39% to 26%, with Entenza trailing at 22%.
OK-Gov: A new Sooner poll finds Rep. Mary Fallin (R) in a strong position to take back the governor's mansion for the GOP this fall. She leads Lt. Gov. Jari Askins (D) 49% to 36%, and leads Attorney General Drew Edmondson (D) 50% to 35%. The Democratic primary is about tied with Edmondson edging Askins, 37% to 36%.
TX-Gov: A new Rasmussen poll finds incumbent Gov. Rick Perry (R) only slightly ahead of his Democratic rival, former Houston Mayor Bill White (D). Perry leads White 48% to 40%. Their previous poll of the race, from last month, showed Perry with a 13-point lead.
