Folks in the know are getting reports that the respected Quinnipiac University Poll is back on the phones, asking likely voters about their candidates for governor. So can a pre-dawn release of a new poll on Wednesday or Thursday be far behind? The October 8 poll, explained by Poll Director Doug Schwartz, left, showed that Malloy picked up 6 points on Republican Tom Foley in a month, bringing the replay of the battling, brawling 2010 election to a 43-all tie. Since then there have been two debates, including the CPTV throwdown with independent Joe Visconti of West Hartford last Thursday.
