Democratic U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland has a slight lead over Republican Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell in the race for Ohio governor, according to a statewide poll released Thursday.
About 50 percent of registered voters said they would select Strickland in the November election versus 44 percent who would choose Blackwell, according to the first major poll since the primary election, conducted by the University of Cincinnati. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.
** We need to make this a bigger gap. Ted has to win or we'll be stuck with another Taft. Ugh! **
