Rasmussen Poll: Tommy leads Baldwin by 16 points; others within margin of error

A new poll from Republican pollster Rasmussen shows former Gov. Tommy Thompson with a wide lead on Rep. Tammy Baldwin in the U.S. Senate race.

The poll, which has a 4.5 percent margin of error, has Thompson leading Baldwin by 16 percentage points two months before the August primary, 52 percent to 36 percent. All other GOP candidates are within the margin of error. Former Congressman Mark Neumann leads Baldwin 45 to 43 percent, Eric Hovde leads Baldwin 44 to 42 percent and Baldwin leads Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald 44 to 43 percent.

The poll was conducted on June 12 and surveyed 500 likely Wisconsin voters.
