SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) Democrat Gary King hopes to follow his fathers footsteps into the governorship of New Mexico but hes struggled to raise money and make much headway against Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, the nations only Latina governor.

Martinez has outspent King more than 6-to-1 on television ads and a new poll showed Martinez maintaining a comfortable lead in whats traditionally a Democratic-leaning state. The Democratic challenger had only $123,000 in his campaign account this month as the race entered the final stretch.

TV isnt everything in a modern world, said King, a two-term attorney general and the son of the states longest serving governor, the late Bruce King, who won three terms from the 1970s to 1990s.

I campaign a lot in the style of Bruce King, which is to go out and meet voters face to face, King said at a recent political forum.

An Albuquerque Journal poll released Sunday showed 53 percent of likely voters backing Martinez to 38 percent for King, with 9 percent undecided.

Martinez made history four years ago by becoming the nations first female Hispanic governor and the first woman elected governor of New Mexico. Shes considered a rising star in a party thats searching for ways nationally to appeal to Hispanic voters.

Martinez has succeeded in doing that in New Mexico, where Hispanics account for 47 percent of the population. The latest Journal poll showed two-fifths of likely Hispanic voters supporting the governor. Thats strong for a Republican in a state in which Democrats traditionally win by margins of 2-to-1 or better in heavily Hispanic areas.

Martinez also had the backing of 28 percent of Democrats and 52 percent of independents, according to the poll conducted for the paper by Albuquerque-based Research and Polling.

Were less than two weeks away from the election and Gary King is still below 40 percent, despite the Democratic Partys 47 percent share of statewide voter registration, pollster Brian Sanderoff said.

His firm surveyed 614 voters over a three-day period last week, and the poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

Washington Overall, Senate races in the 2014 midterms arent looking good for Democrats. States the Democratic Party once targeted as winnable, such as Iowa, Arkansas, Colorado, and Alaska, are tilting toward Republican candidates. Control of the Senate itself hangs in the balance, and most major forecast models now predict the GOP has a greater than 60 percent chance of winning the chamber.

But something different is happening in Georgia.

Georgias a red state that President Obama lost twice. Replacing retiring incumbent Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R) with another Republican should be an easy task. But right now, polls say it isnt. This fall, Democratic candidate Michelle Nunn has closed the gap with the GOPs David Perdue.

A CNN/ORC survey released Friday put Ms. Nunn ahead of Mr. Purdue by three percentage points, 47 to 44. An Atlanta Journal Constitution poll made public the same day had Purdue up by two points. Given margins of error, these polls are roughly compatible. The race is effectively a dead heat, with Nunn holding a one percentage point lead in RealClearPolitics rolling average of major polls.

Georgia is perhaps the closest Senate race in the country. Its the only one the New York Times Upshot Senate forecast model rates as a pure 50-50 tossup.

Whats going on? For one thing, Nunns name seems to be weighing in her favor. Shes the daughter of former Sen. Sam Nunn, a Democrat who represented Georgia from 1972 to 1997 and served as chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Meanwhile Perdue, a wealthy businessman, has struggled to overcome some aspects of his past work. Hes said on camera that he was proud of outsourcing he carried out as CEO of a North Carolina-based textile firm that eventually went into bankruptcy.

The clip has featured in Nunn ads flooding the Atlanta media market. Suddenly, Perdues biggest asset his business career has become a liability, writes Michael Warren Friday in the right-leaning Weekly Standard.

But theres a complicating factor here Georgia law calls for a two-candidate runoff to decide the Senate race if no one candidate receives more than 50 percent. There is a third party candidate running, Libertarian Amanda Swafford, and shes attracting about 4 to 5 percent of the vote in polls. That could be enough to keep the first-place finisher under the 50 percent threshold and trigger the runoff provision.

Some analysts think its possible that Nunn, with her tiny lead in the polling average, could just manage 50 percent on Nov. 4.Nate Cohn at The Upshot says that minor party candidates in Georgia typically draw only around 2 percent of the vote, so that Ms. Swaffords support may shrink when people actually go to the polls.
