DALLAS, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- Texas Republican Pete Sessions has a 6 point lead in one of the nation's most hotly contested congressional races, the Dallas Morning News said Tuesday.
Sessions, a rising GOP star, is trying to fit off a bid from Democrat U.S. Rep. Martin Frost, who moved into Texas' 32nd Congressional District after the lines in his old 24th Congressional District were redrawn to his disadvantage.
The Dallas Morning News poll has Sessions with 50 percent against 44 percent for Frost, a former member of his party's congressional leadership, among the 800 likely voters in the district surveyed.
Six percent of respondents said they remain undecided.
The poll was conducted Oct. 7-9 for by Selzer and Company and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
