Latest Barrett campaign poll says race a 'dead heat'
The campaign for Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett released another poll showing a tight race Thursday, with candidates neck-and-neck but Gov. Scott Walker edging ahead at 50-48%.
Barrett for Wisconsin put out the poll one day after the release of a Marquette Law School poll, taken last week, showed Barrett down 52-45.
The campaign highlighted poll findings that Barrett lead Walker 51-47 among voters aware of Walker's potential inclusion in a John Doe probe involving staff and aides from the governor's time as Milwaukee County Executive. Barrett for Wisconsin also noted their candidate beat Walker 56-42 among those who did not vote in the 2010 gubernatorial election, according to the poll.
The survey of 821 voters has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points, according to the campaign. Barrett for Wisconsin touted the findings and those of three other Dem-backed polls that show a tight race, contrary to polls like Marquette's, which put Barrett behind.
Campaign representatives for Walker did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
With projected turn out to be 60 to 65% That's a whoopin'.
