COLUMBUS, Ohio -- GOP Sen. Mike DeWine has fallen well behind his Democratic
rival in a Senate race once considered among the closest in the country, a poll
released Tuesday shows.
U.S. Rep. Sherrod Brown was favored by 53 percent of likely Ohio voters surveyed,
compared to 41 percent for DeWine, in The Quinnipiac University Poll.
The telephone survey of 901 likely Ohio voters, conducted Oct. 10-15, had a margin
of error of plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.
A September Quinnipiac poll had showed the two men neck-and-neck in one of the
closest races in the country.
