Poll: What Did You Least Expect?

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

Looking back on a long 2010 election season, there are events that any of us can point to as unexpected, some more than others–Michael Bennet’s narrow U.S. Senate victory, John Hickenlooper’s anticlimactic stomping of Tom Tancredo, the GOP pickup of two congressional seats, or the successful defense of the Democratic majority in the Colorado Senate. There’s also the unusual closeness of legislative races generally this year compared to other years, and the very small (and still technically pending) GOP margin of victory in the Colorado House.

And we can’t forget all the game-changing things that happened along the way setting up Tuesday’s outcome, like the self-destruction of gubernatorial candidate Scott McInnis, or the loss of the once-heavily favored Jane Norton in the GOP U.S. Senate primary.

Of all the twists and turns this election took, what surprised you the most? A poll follows.
