Now, with just days to go before Wisconsin votes, the much-respected Marquette University Law School poll shows among voters statewide, Evers and GOP businessman Tim Michels are deadlocked with 48% each.
The X-factor in the race is independent candidate Joan Ellis Beglinger, who suddenly withdrew from the race in September to endorse Michels. But state election law requires her name to remain on the ballot, and Marquette’s latest findings have the retired nurse and health care company executive at 2%.
The Marquette poll clearly shows movement in the direction of Trumpster Michaels since a month ago, when it showed Evers at 47%, Michels 46% and Beglinger 4%.
Van Mobley, president of the Board of Trustees of Thiensville, Wisconsin, and one of Donald Trump’s earliest backers in the Badger State, told us that inflation was a key issue driving support for Michels.
