Hartford, CT, United States (AHN) - Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal has expanded his lead over Republican Linda McMahon, according to a new poll on the state's Senate race. The survey finds McMahon, despite seeking to be the state's first woman senator, still unpopular among female voters.
 
 The latest Quinnipiac University poll has Blumenthal ahead, 54 percent to 43 percent, of the likely electorate. Seven percent of voters who support a candidate said they may change their mind before the election next month.
 
 McMahon has lost her lead among independents. The Republican's 5 point advantage last month has shifted over to her rival, who leads 49 percent to 44 percent.
 
 The Democrat has a 69 percent job approval rating, and 57 percent say view him favorably despite his "misstating" this summer that he had served in Vietnam. Thirty-eight percent view Blumenthal unfavorably.
 
 In contrast, voters are evenly divided at 46 percent about their views of McMahon, statistically similar to her favorability rating last month. Among women, only 37 percent say they have a positive view of her and 55 percent view her negatively.
 
 In terms of overall support, female voters continue to prefer Blumenthal over McMahon, 63 percent to 32 percent. Conversely, men choose McMahon over the state attorney general, 52 percent to 46 percent.
 
 Women, like blacks and other minority voters, are traditionally Democratic groups, just as male voters and whites have historically favored Republican candidates. But McMahon's problem with female voters is not simply a reflection of such values.
 
 McMahon was within 3 points of her rival last month but Quinnnipiac said "a surge in support from women" helped her Democratic opponent expand his lead to the current double-digits.
 
 "He is winning women by an overwhelming 31-point margin, while McMahon has struggled with women throughout the campaign," Douglas Schwartz, the university's poll director, said in a statement. "They have a negative image of her but like him by more than 2-1."
 
 The poll was released a day after the New York Times said nearly three dozen interviews statewide showed women were "troubled by what they see as the harshness of the attacks" of McMahon against her rival, as well as her work in the professional wrestling industry.
 
 The Times endorsed Blumenthal on Thursday, but was lukewarm in its announcement, calling the Democrat "charm-free, experienced" and explaining, "We have larger concerns with the Republican."
 
 McMahon, 62, resigned as chief executive of her family's multi-million sports entertainment company, World Wrestling Entertainment, last year to launch a campaign.
 
 Since then, she has faced criticisms about leading a company that promotes violence and degrades women. A member of the state board of education, she has fought back by assuring voters she is a self-made businesswoman who grew her company from a 13-person enterprise to an international corporation that provides jobs to hundreds.
 
 However, McMahon's record as an executive is also being questioned by critics, including Jesse Ventura, former professional wrestler and ex-governor of Minnesota.
 
 "There's no unions, no health care and everybody is hired as an independent contractor," Ventura said of WWE and his old boss in a Hartford Courant interview. "How do they get away calling me an independent contractor and yet I have to sign an exclusivity contract?"
 
 Perhaps good news for McMahon is that the Times said the same women it had interviewed also raised concerns about Blumenthal's being a "career politician," a criticism that has become the battle cry of outliers and newcomers in an election year filled with anti-incumbent sentiment.
 
 "This has been a very unusual election year... so anything is possible," Quinnipiac's Schwartz said.

	Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the
	synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
