Republican challenger Ron Johnson receives over 50% support against incumbent Democrat Russ Feingold in the fourth consecutive survey of Wisconsin’s U.S. Senate race.
The latest Rasmussen Reports statewide telephone survey of Likely Voters shows Johnson, a wealthy plastics manufacturer, picking up 53% of the vote. Feingold, who has represented the state in the Senate since 1993, draws support from 46%. Only one percent (1%) are undecided at this point.

Most outside Wisconsin don't understand that ALL the stars are aligned for us to win back the Governorship and Feingold's Senate seat.
The Dems are running Feingold from uber liberal Madison and Barrett from heavily Democratic Milwaukee. The Republicans are running Johnson from the very important swing Fox Valley, and Walker from Milwaukee County. Walker has been elected 3 times in Democrat Milwaukee County on a message of smaller gov't and lower taxes. He has walked the walk. Walker will split the Milwaukee Cty vote, which ANY Dem running for statewide office has to carry with at least 60% of the vote to even think of winning. Almost nobody voting for Walker will vote for Feingold. Either both will win or both will lose.
Johnson will do the same for Walker in the Fox Valley. He will outperform the historic Rep/Dem numbers in the area from Fond Du Lac to Green Bay, and Walker will benefit from this.
Feingold/Barrett will do marvelous in Dane County (Madison), but the turnout there will probably underpeform.
My prediction is Walker and Johnson will win their respective races by 52-53 to 47-48. In a state that gave Obama a 56-44 win over McCain two years ago, that will be a remarkable turnaround
McCain is going to lose his lil playmate......
Buh bye, Rusty. So long Diamond Jim.
if we can’t get conservative control in this state this election, we never will! Let’s work to get our like minded friends and neighbors to vote next week.
Let’s win by a big margin to counter the voter fraud that seems to be the Democrat Party way.
Pray Johnson, Walker et al win as the Democrat machine in Dane County and Milwaukee County gets to “count” the votes there.
My dentist told me this morning that he is going to vote for Walker and Feingold. WTH? I tried to talk up Johnson...SIGH.
Incumbents polling at 46% one week before the election have one foot in the political grave and the other one pulling up alongside. Oral Roberts probably couldn’t revive Feingold at this point, though the dead do vote in certain parts of Wisconsin.
Well Feingold will get some of the Jewish vote (my dentist) who will also vote for Walker for pocketbook reasons. I think a lot of libs on the East side of Milwaukee for example may vote Walker and tell everyone they voted Barrett. The Walker/Feingold voters will be far more than the Barrett/Johnson voters. Will not result in much change in vote totals though.
