Governor's race is a dead heat
According to a new WBUR MassINC poll, the race for New Hampshire governor is a dead heat.
41% of poll respondents said they would vote for Colin Van Ostern, and 41% said they would vote for Chris Sununu.
15% said they were still undecided. When the undecided voters were pressed to make a decision, the scales tipped slightly in Van Ostern’s favor. 47% said they were likely to vote for Van Ostern, and 44% said they were likely to vote for Sununu. That 3% difference is still within the poll’s margin of error, however.
Both candidates face challenges winning over undecided voters. According to the poll, 31% said they had never even heard of Colin Van Ostern. Only 5% of voters hadn’t heard of Chris Sununu. However, 41% of voters said they had an unfavorable opinion of Sununu. Only 15% said they had an unfavorable opinion of Van Ostern.
The survey included 501 likely voters, 28% Democrat, 31% Republican, and 40% undeclared.
