previous election cycles.1 As the race stands today, Democrat Carolyn Long is only 5 points behind Herrera
Beutler.

The gap between the two candidates closes very quickly, with the race tied after voters hear positive profiles
of both candidates. On the informed ballot, independent voters support Long by a 15-point margin, with
Long leading Herrera Beutler 45% to 30%.

Herrera Beutler is vulnerable in this district, with her job performance underwater by 11 points. Just 37%
of voters say she is doing an excellent or good job, compared to 48% who say she is doing a just fair or
poor job. Further, a majority of independents (50%) say she is doing a just fair or poor job.

With enough resources to communicate her message, Long is in a strong position to compete and win in
a very competitive district.
