Roll Call has conducted the latest poll in the 11th Congressional District, and like the internal survey released on Friday and our own poll published on Monday, this one shows Democrat Debbie Halvorson with support in the 50 percent range and a double-digit lead over her Republican opponent:

Survey USA for Roll Call. 10/20-21. Likely voters. MoE 4%

Debbie Halvorson (D): 50%
Marty Ozinga (R):
37%
Jason Wallace (G):
9%

The new survey also undermines the Ozinga camp's complaints about our poll in the 11th District.  The SouthtownStar reported yesterday that campaign manager Andy Sere questioned the "reliability" of our poll because it left out Green Party candidate Jason Wallace.  However, Roll Call reports that Wallace appears to be hurting Ozinga:

The third-party candidate also appears to be helping Halvorson, siphoning off more votes from registered Republicans than registered Democrats in the poll, as well as 20 percent of the vote from self-described independents.
