United States Senator David Vitter appears to be the man to beat for the Louisiana Governor's Race in 2015. Based on recent poll numbers and a strong approval rating many political pundits have suggested that the race is Vitter's to lose.

According North Carolina based Public Policy Polling, Vitter would top  John Bel Edwards easily and could with stand run off elections against Lt. Governor Jay Dardenne and New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu.

According to Tom Jensen with Public Policy Polling, Dardeene might be Vitter's toughest battle in a race for the Governor's office.

"I think you would see democrats tend to vote for Dardenne in a such a run-off and then if you combine that with just a large enough of the percentage of the republican vote that's where you could see Vitter have some trouble."

Jensen's comments were published by the Louisiana Radio Network in a report on Sunday. The numbers that were used in that report were based upon a recent survey of 664 registered voters.
