A new Marquette Law School poll finds the Wisconsin gubernatorial race tied with Gov. Scott Walker (R) and Democratic challenger Mary Burke each getting 47 percent support among likely voters.
The most recent Marquette poll's findings, released on Wednesday, contrast a previous Marquette poll which showed Walker leading Burke by 5 percentage points.
The most recent poll's findings underscore what other polls have shown about the race: that Walker and Burke are only separated by a small margin.
The new Marquette poll also suggests that Burke has, at the very least, not totally lost her chance to win the race in the wake of revelations that a staffer on her campaign seems to have plagiarized from other past Democratic campaigns.
The new poll was conducted among 803 likely voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
The TPM Polltracker average finds Walker with a 0.4 point lead over Burke.
Nonsense...they wish it was true so then run a poll that confirms it..
I hope Scott McWalker wins by 1 point and refuses to run for president.
Consumed with winning over Sheldon Adelson and Tom Donahue, Scott Walker neglected conservatives…
Walker endorsed Marco Rubio’s amnesty plan.
Walker came out against additional border security.
Walker came out against repealing Obamacare.
Walker came out against spending cuts.
Walker endorsed the Ryan-Murray budget deal.
Walker prostrated himself before Sheldon Adelson.
Walker illegally coordinated with Karl Rove.
As Rick Perry might say, “oops”…
I don’t recall any story about how Walker was ahead.
It disappeared because the Dems have targeted this race for extreme cheating. They can do this and get away with it by declaring the race neck in neck at the moment.
It is so easy even a democrat can do it.
When Scott Walker said “Gay marriage is here to stay”
He lost a lot of conservatives
Sadly, Walker is just another big govt RINO...
So sorry but methinks they are manipulating the polls, making it closer so they can commit voter fraud and have no one question the results. If it’s close, it ALWAYS goes to the Dem.
Also told the Tea Party to stop primarying RINOS.
Haven’t Romney and Christie endorsed Walker as a good candidate in 2016? Shouldn’t that be a warning sign?
“I have serious concerns about the Arizona law — both because the law impedes on the inherent right of the federal government to do its job and to protect our borders, and also because in America we don’t want our citizens getting pulled over because of how they look,” his statement said.
we're Americans first, patriots.....we need the leaders in there no matter if they fart in the wind once in a while...
I'm always suspicious of people that sign up just before elections and then come trying to diminish the pub vote by criticizing OUR people...
Grothman running for Wisconsin’s 6th Congressional Distirct wanted to defund sanctuary cities in WI. I don’t know if Walker tried to tone down the talk during his time as Governor.
Why do so many Republican presidential wanna-bes keep falling all over themselves to kiss this octogenarian's rear end?
That is a rhetorical question. I know it's about money, but holy crap, have some pride, some dignity.
I hope Walker wins.
Isn’t Mary refusing to actually repeal anything that Walker signed. How is she going to win if she is running on the same platform as Walker.
I believe this to be true. The recall showed them the threshold they need to reach.
LOL... You’re sick.
Do you think the Dems don’t commit voter fraud?? Look into Dino Rossi, Norm Coleman, etc, etc, etc.
So sorry... I meant to reply to the post above yours that called Walker a RINO.
When he was beating the unions he was everyone’s hero, now he’s a RINO.
Phew!
The rats and the msm are terrified of walker - they are putting everything into this race to derail his presidential ambitions.
This is a Clinton operation, period. Walker is not only talented and brave, he doesn’t have a college degree, bolstering his cross over appeal w blue collar voters.
Walker is the best. Vote for him, wisconsin. We are looking at the next president if he is re-elected
BINGO!!!
