Poll: Scott Walker, 54%; Tom Barrett, 42%
Time for Snoopy Dance?
Most if not all the polls in Wisconsin have Governor Scott Walker ahead of the recall candidate Tom Barrett. According to the newest poll by the organization “We Ask America” have Governor Walker with this considerable lead. Keep in mind, polls differ not only by who’s polling, but also if our friends in Wisconsin will vote and are registered Republicans.
Here are the poll results by “We Ask America” (h/t C4P):
| ALL VOTERS* | 54% | 42% | 4% |
| WOMEN | 51% | 44% | 5% |
| MEN | 57% | 39% | 4% |
| PUBLIC UNION HOUSEHOLDS | 47% | 50% | 3% |
| NON-PUB. UNION HOUSEHOLDS | 55% | 40% | 5% |
*The head-to-head results were weighted to correct for over-/under-sampling of the gender and age bracket areas. The weighting changed the final results by less than one percentage point.
Rasmussen has Walker on the lead so far by only 5% (+/-3% the margin of error)
(Via Scared Monkeys): A new Rasmussen Reports statewide telephone survey shows that 50% of the state’s Likely Voters prefer Walker while 45% choose Barrett. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate and another two percent (2%) are undecided.
At The Weekly Standard, Public Policy Polling, a Democratic firm, found the exact same results (Walker 50%, Barrett 45%) when it polled the Wisconsin recall race in April [...] but the good news for Walker is that he has an 8-point lead among independent voters.
Another polls is showing the same five percent difference, this time from St. Norbert College and Wisconsin Public Radio. It showed Barrett trailing Walker by a similar margin, 50-45 percent.
The date is set for June 5th; let the Scottmentum continue.
Palin: Wis. gov doing the right thing with unions
The “Associated Depressed” already put their piece out; not much of a surprise but they did keep it short (as they wrote Palin’s speech was short.)
Breitbart snatched it but still the inspiration is out there on Twitter as I post this, almost an hour later. I wonder if it’s constrained because they dashed and wrote the article fast, or if they are getting to the point where both Palin and Trump are calling them out as biased.
