MU Law Poll: Wisconsin’s governor, US Senate races are dead heats

MILWAUKEE — Wisconsin’s races for governor and U.S. Senate are statistically tied, the first Marquette University Law School Poll after the primary election shows.

In the governor’s race, Republican Gov. Scott Walker and Democrat Tony Evers both got 46 percent support among likely voters. Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin holds a narrow 49-47 percent lead over Republican Leah Vukmir among likely voters, which is well within the margin of error.

Dead heats inside the margins of error at that.

Progress from Walker strictly only going by the polls.
