Rasmussen poll: Thompson 54, Baldwin 43
Former Gov. Tommy Thompson leads U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin in a new Rasmussen Reports poll of the state's new matchup for its U.S. Senate seat.
The poll, conducted the day after the primary, showed 54 percent of respondents favoring Thompson to 43 percent for Baldwin, D-Madison. The telephone survey polled 500 likely Wisconsin voters and had a margin of error of plus-or-minus 4.5 percentage points.
Democrats generally dismiss Rasmussen polling as biased toward Republicans.
