Rasmussen Reports poll: Kasich maintains lead over Strickland
Republican challenger John Kasich now holds an eight-point lead over Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland among likely voters in the Rasmussen Reports poll, 50-42 percent.
The results include “leaners.” Three percent prefer another candidate and 4 percent are undecided.
Release of the poll on Wednesday comes a day after some surveys showed the governor’s race tightening, with Kasich’s lead down to one or two points.
Two weeks ago in the Rasmussen Reports survey, Kasich led 50-43 percent, including leaners.
The new survey of 500 likely voters was conducted Monday and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
In Rasmussen Reports surveys since December, Kasich has won support from 45 to 50 percent of likely voters, while Strickland has won support from 38 percent to 45 percent.
