Congressman under indictment still leading his opponent, new poll shows

The Sacramento Bee reports:

Congressman Duncan Hunter, R-Alpine, still holds a significant lead over his Democratic opponent in the November election, despite the fact that he has been indicted on multiple federal crimes, according to a poll released Thursday.

The poll, from Monmouth University, shows 49 percent of all potential voters support Hunter; in addition, one in 10 voters who believe Hunter is guilty of the federal criminal allegations against him “are still willing to support his re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives,” according to a Monmouth statement.

Imagine that.
