Gov. Scott Walker (R-Wis.) is trailing Democratic challenger Tony Evers by 13 points in the upcoming Wisconsin gubernatorial race, according to a new poll released Thursday.

Of the registered voters surveyed in the NBC News/Marist poll, 41 percent backed Walker in the race, compared to the 54 percent who supported Evers.

Walker warned earlier the year that a “blue wave” could hit the state in the midterm elections, claiming that “big government special interests” will “target me and work to undo our bold reforms.”

He issued the warning after liberal Judge Rebecca Dallet defeated conservative Judge Michael Screnock in the race for a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat in April, a race largely considered a bellwether for the 2018 midterm elections.
