Despite a potentially crowded GOP primary field for U.S. Senate in 2012, former Sen. George Allen looks to be in good shape to reclaim his old seat, according to a poll released Thursday by the left-leaning firm Public Policy Polling.

More than half of Virginia’s GOP primary voters would prefer Allen compared with just 25 percent for a generic “more conservative” candidate, according to the poll.
