OH Gov Poll: Kasich Maintains Lead

The Ohio governor race really kicked off in the past month, as both John Kasich (R) and incumbent Ted Strickland (D) announced their running mates. Strickland also delivered his state-of-the-state address in recent weeks. And yet, Rasmussen's latest poll in the Buckeye State (500 LVs, 2/5-6, MoE +/- 4.5%) finds little movement for either candidate, with the former Republican Congressman still ahead.

General Election Matchup
Kasich 47 (unch vs. last poll, 1/12)
Strickland 41 (+1)
Und 8 (unch)

As noted yesterday, Strickland's job approval rating has ticked up three points since January, and now stands at 46 percent. Kasich's favorable rating is 47 percent, with 30 percent viewing him unfavorably.
