Marquette Law School Poll; Wisconsin voters surveyed on governor primary
New Marquette Law School Poll to be released
Marquette University Law School will release a new statewide poll on Wednesday, July 22.
MILWAUKEE - A new Marquette University Law School Poll will be released Wednesday, July 22. The survey examined voter views ahead of the August 11 Wisconsin gubernatorial primary.
Marquette poll from March
Dig deeper:
The most recent Marquette poll released in March reported that more than half of registered voters say they have not decided on a candidate in either the Republican or Democratic gubernatorial primary.
In the Republican primary, 40% support Tom Tiffany. On the Democratic side, Francesca Hong is the choice of 14% with Mandella Barnes behind just a bit – supported by 11%.
David Crowley, however, was only the choice for 3% of that vote – granted a majority of voters in the poll said they were undecided.
These numbers today could very well shift. The poll was done prior to Governor Tony Evers endorsing Crowley – still, with all these shake-ups, it will give FOX6 News a peek behind the curtain of what could come out of August's election.

Crowley had endorsed Rodriguez after suspending his own campaign, while other campaigns voiced criticism of the lieutenant governor after news of the finance report issues became public. Then, after she dropped out due to those financial campaign issues coming to light, Crowley jumped back into the race, so it could be interesting to see how that plays with voters as well.
