(This pollster was the most accurate in 2011 recall and 2012)
MILWAUKEE A new Marquette Law School Poll finds that the Wisconsin governors race remains a dead heat, with Republican Gov. Scott Walker receiving the support of 46 percent of registered voters and Democratic challenger Mary Burke receiving 45 percent support. Eight percent say that they are undecided or that they do not know whom they would support. Fewer than 1 percent say they will vote for someone else.
These results closely resemble the most recent Marquette Law School Poll, in May, which showed both candidates receiving the support of 46 percent of registered voters.
Among likely voters, i.e., those who say they are certain to vote in Novembers election, Burke receives 47 percent and Walker 46 percent.
The results for both registered and likely voters are within the polls margin of error. The July poll interviewed 804 registered voters by landline and cell phone July 17-20. The margin of error is +/- 3.5 percentage points. For the sample of 549 likely voters, the margin of error is +/- 4.3 percentage points.
