Shapp Schweiker Lead Narrowed In AP Poll For PA Race
A AP survey of Pennsylvania political writers predicts Gov Milton Shapp and Sen Richard Schweiker will win re election but by smaller margins than in prior wins. Shapp is favored by about 315000 votes while Schweiker may win by roughly 45000, with key gains from ticket splitting in Philadelphia and liberal Democrats offsetting Republican strength in the southwest and rural counties. Turnout is expected to be about 15 percent below normal across the 67 counties.
