Rasmussen poll: Feingold, Johnson nearly even in Senate race
The latest Rasmussen Reports survey has U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold and Oshkosh businessman Ron Johnson about even.
The poll, done Tuesday after Johnson won the state GOP’s endorsement, found 46 percent of respondents backed Feingold, D-Middleton, compared to 44 percent for Johnson. Three percent preferred some other candidate, while the rest were not sure.
The automated phone survey of 500 likely voters had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
Rasmussen, which Dems complain is biased toward Republicans, also found Feingold leading other GOP candidates Dave Westlake 47-38 and Madison developer Terrence Wall, who's expected to leave the race soon, 47-41.
