Washington ( CNN ) -- Just a day before voters head to the polls , the New Hampshire Senate race is anyone 's guess with the two candidates locked in a dead heat according to two new polls . Incumbent Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen edges out Republican challenger Scott Brown in a WMUR poll out Sunday while Brown is barely ahead of Shaheen by a one point margin in a New England College poll also out Sunday . Both results amount to a statistical tie with both leads within the polls ' margin of error . The last word from the WMUR poll of 757 likely voters calls the race at 47 % for Shaheen to Brown 's 45 % -- but 6 % of voters say they remain undecided . The New England College poll of 1,526 likely voters gives Brown the race 49 % to 48 % , but says just 2 % of voters are undecided . The race has tightened since the summer when Brown consistently trailed his opponent in every major nonpartisan poll . Brown has effectively closed the gap and his campaign has worked hard since the summer to tarnish Shaheen 's independent brand by tying her to President Barack Obama , who pulls a 37 % approval rating among the state 's likely voters , according to the WMUR poll . Brown has also run several ads playing up the Ebola crisis and the threat from ISIS , saying in a September ad , `` President Obama and Senator Shaheen seem confused about the threat , not me . '' While the race has tightened in Brown 's favor , a larger share of voters ' polled by WMUR said they believe Shaheen is most likely to pull through with a win -- 55 % of respondents said Shaheen would triumph compared to 49 % in October . Shaheen , meanwhile , who has served as both governor and senator in New Hampshire has touted her in-state credentials while branding Brown as an outsider . Brown served nearly three years representing Massachusetts in the U.S. Senate before moving to New Hampshire after losing his bid for reelection .
Two polls released Sunday showed the New Hampshire senate race a dead heat . The WMUR poll has Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen ahead by 2 percentage points . The New England College poll had former Sen. Scott Brown ahead by 1 percentage point .
