Hurray!
This is great news!  It sounds like a lot of people remember Governor Shaheen's record of accomplishment on so many issues (about which you can read on http://draftshaheen....)! 
I don't like this ARG poll, however. It is silly to do a horse race poll with just two people when there are announced candidates. I don't like it when pollsters try to impose their view of the world on everyone. If anything, this poll hurts Governor Shaheen, because people will be offended, and say, "Oh, look, there they go, trying to select the candidate without any input." Which makes me wonder what the motivation was behind the poll, now that I think about it (I can be very conspiratorial). If Governor Shaheen runs, I know she will work hard to earn every vote, and to earn the nomination, just like she did when she ran for governor. 
It is also a weird poll  - it asked three questions?  No real issues questions?

Energy and persistence conquer all things.
