Gibbons, Mandel lead Ohio GOP Senate primary field: poll

Mike Gibbons and Josh Mandel lead the Ohio GOP Senate primary field as Republicans battle for the chance to run for the seat being vacated by Sen. Rob Portman (R), according to a poll released Tuesday.

The Fox News poll shows Gibbons, an investment banker, leading the field with 22 percent support among GOP primary voters. Mandel, a former state treasurer, trails just behind with 20 percent, a difference that falls within the survey's margin of error. "Hillbilly Elegy" author JD Vance is in third with 11 percent, followed by former Ohio GOP Chair Jane Timken at 9 percent and state Sen. Matt Dolan at 7 percent.

In a sign of how in flux the primary remains, 24 percent of primary voters said they remain undecided.

The poll is the latest in a string of surveys showing Gibbons slingshotting to the top of the field. After being stuck in the middle of the field for months, Gibbons surged to the lead in a The Hill/Emerson College poll released last month and an internal poll conducted by a pro-Vance super PAC released earlier this month.

Glad to see Gibbons still on top.

And also glad to see Timken in 4th.

Can we win-that’s all that matters. Prospects are good in a wave election. So why is DeWine doing so well? It’s called don’t change horses in midstream. Save your powder for other races.

Ohio’s version of Donald Trump. Going to Washington to fight the Democrats.

After hearing Timken on the Bill Cunningham radio show, I wouldn’t vote for her for Precinct Dog Catcher.

Absolutely not ready for prime time.

Absolutely terrible speaker.
And wishy washy on any serious subject.

“Tell us about Gibbons. Never heard of him”

I don’t know much about him. But Mandel has run and lost before. And Timken is Portman’s choice so she’s obviously worthless.

Automobile mechanics’ joke.

Timkin is a hugh wheel bearing manufacturer. (See #5).

I know - Timken headquarters is a few miles from where I used to live. I was just joking about your horrible/brilliant pun.

DeWine has 2 opponents that are splitting the vote, I’d wager he gets under 50%.
