OH-SEN: Moreno leads Ohio GOP Senate primary by 9 points ahead of election: Survey
Bernie Moreno, a businessman backed by former President Trump, holds a 9-point lead in the Republican Senate primary in Ohio, according to a poll released one day ahead of Tuesday’s election.
The final Emerson College poll of likely GOP voters, conducted Sunday and Monday, shows Moreno with 38 percent support — topping state Sen. Matt Dolan, who has 29 percent support.
Only 12 percent in the survey back Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who has seen a gradual decline in support since January, when he had 21 percent behind him. An early March poll showed LaRose with 16 percent support. LaRose has little financial firepower to keep up with Dolan and Moreno, who are self-funding their campaigns.
Moreno has seen a sizeable jump in support since earlier this month, increasing 15 points. The poll was conducted after Trump traveled to Ohio to campaign for Moreno on Saturday, drawing media attention that likely boosted Moreno’s performance in the polls.
