Republican Gov. Scott Walker leads Democratic challenger Mary Burke 50% to 43% among likely voters in a new survey by the Marquette University Law School.

That represents a change from other surveys in recent weeks — including Marquette's previous poll two weeks ago — showing the race essentially tied.

Marquette surveyed 1,164 likely voters from last Thursday through Sunday. The poll has margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

The unions pumped lots of money into ousting Walker.

Heh.

How is Burke polling with dead voters?
That’s the one you need to keep your eye on.

It’s getting closer to election day. The polls now have to reflect reality in order to maintain credibility.

Previous looks like an outlier but I called it ahead of time last week. MU would have it tied for drama.

Still need to play the down 2 game here and finally crush the left here for now in WI.

Oops. You forgot to ask about the illegal aliens. They are a big voting block and 80% Dem.

Is that “got fired by her own family for incompetence” meme hurting Burke?

“I guess Obama’s appearance has done it again!”

Probably a sign that her internal polling was not in her favor. Out of desparation she brought in Obama. From that I would say this poll is probably pretty close to correct.

That just came out today. It would have no impact on this poll, which was done over the last two weeks.

I don't think the illegal alien population in Wisconsin is significant. Not enough to sway the election.

It will be a factor in Milwaukee and Madison.

I’m from Wisconsin...milwaukee area...and I know parts of it are EXTREMELY liberal...but by and large, the people of Wisconsin are not so stupid and blind as to oust Walker...the City of Milwaukee is, and the unions are....but fortunately they are not the majority!!!
