The respected Marquette Law poll takes another look at Wisconsin’s gubernatorial contest, and they find things are as close as ever:
Mary Burke (D): 47
Scott Walker (R-inc): 47
Marquette’s last poll from two weeks ago showed Walker leading 50-45. This new survey interrupts a small streak of polls that gave Walker a lead.
Plenty of ad dollars have been sunk into this race, but both candidates’ favorable ratings remain as polarized as ever. Walker has a 50-48 favorable rating, while Burke has a 44-44 rating. Walker and his allies have spent millions hitting Burke over her campaign platform after it emerged that a former adviser copied it from other campaigns he’s worked on. It doesn’t seem to have done much though. For months it’s looked like this race will come down to turnout and a very small pool of persuadable voters, and that hadn’t changed.
Please, please give $3 to boot Scott Walker out of office by electing Mary Burke.
