Rasmussen: Thompson, Neumann lead Baldwin
A new poll from Rasmussen Reports finds Republicans Tommy Thompson and Mark Neumann leading Dem U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin for U.S. Senate, while she's about even with Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald.
The survey found Thompson leading Baldwin 50-36 percent with 4 percent backing another candidate and the rest undecided. Neumann led 46-37 with 4 percent backing another candidate and the rest undecided, while 41 percent favored Fitzgerald and 40 percent backed Baldwin in that match up.
In October, Rasmussen found Thompson up on Baldwin 49-42, Baldwin leading Neumann 44-43 and Baldwin leading Fitzgerald 46-39.
The latest survey of 500 likely voters was conducted Monday and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
Dems have attacked the Rasmussen polls a biased toward Republicans.
