Rasmussen Reports Strickland up 17-20 Percent
Buckeye State Blog is reporting the following numbers from Rasmussen's April Gubernatorial and Senate race polls. The numbers are only available to "premium members" so I cannot access the information directly.
Obviously, this is great news for Ted Strickland. If things keep going this way it may not even be a close race. The Senate numbers are a little harder to read but I still take it as a good sign for Brown. Although he lost 1 percentage point from last months poll, Dewine is down 2 points. It isn't much of a significant change but it does show him slowly closing the gap.
Strickland 52% (50%, 47%)
Blackwell 35% (40%, 35%)
Strickland 51% (47%, 44%)
Petro 31% (34%, 37%)
DeWine 43% (45%, 46%)
Brown 41% (42%, 37%)

I'm surprised people still have so much faith in polls. Not only have they been wrong in recent elections, we have to remember: Blackwell still counts the votes even though he doesn't conduct the polls himself.
Vote for Fitrakis!
