UPDATED: 2:32 PM EDT July 26, 2004
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Republican Betty D. Montgomery and Democrat Sherrod Brown lead the pack of potential candidates for governor in 2006, according to a poll released on Monday.
Montgomery, the state auditor, was the Republican choice for governor of 41 percent of Ohio voters who responded to a mail poll by The Columbus Dispatch. Brown, a congressman, was the Democratic choice of 21 percent.
Neither, however, was a favorite in their own parties.
Among 972 Republicans who responded, Montgomery is tied with Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell at 36 percent. Attorney General Jim Petro was third with 29 percent.
Among the 706 Democrats surveyed, state Sen. Eric Fingerhut of Cleveland received the support of 23 percent, to 22 percent for Brown. That is within the poll's margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2 percentage points. Eight potential Democratic candidates were listed. |
