Walker's lead in Wisconsin recall election tightens in new poll

By Rachel Rose Hartman | The Ticket – 4 hrs ago

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker maintains a narrow lead in his recall election, but his standing has diminished in recent weeks, according to a new poll released on the eve of the election.

Walker leads Democratic challenger Tom Barrett, the mayor of Milwaukee, by just 3 percentage points in a new survey of likely voters (pdf) conducted by Public Policy Polling. Walker leads Barrett 50 to 47 percent, down from the 50 to 45 percent matchup PPP found in a poll conducted three weeks ago. The margin of error for this week's poll is plus or minus 2.8 percentage points.

According to PPP, Walker—who was targeted for a recall after waging war on state public employee unions in 2011—is winning among men, whites, seniors and residents of the Milwaukee suburbs. Barrett leads among women, minorities, young voters and residents of Milwaukee County and greater Madison. Barrett is also winning independent voters 48 to 46 percent, a lead that is within the margin of error.

I saw that idiot Barret on Fox News complaining about all the out of state money that Walker has been getting.  It pissed me off that he wasn't called on the fact that unions have sent in just as much out of state money and out of state voters to support him.

He also declined to be interviewed with Brett. Walker was more than happy to be interviewed by him.

Are you thinking the same thing I am? i.e. A progressive radio show with a "good reverand" as the host?

Not sure about that, but they're notoriously left and over-sample Democrats.

If by some miracle Walker loses tomorrow night, we should start the recall effort on Barrett.  :-)
