Baldwin was polling ahead of Tony Evers, who is trying to unseat Gov. Scott Walker. Wisconsin voters have a history of splitting the ticket.

Walker — after victories in 2010, 2012 (recall) and 2014 — is in the fight of his political life against Evers, the state superintendent of public instruction.
