The latest Quinnipiac poll of Ohio's open-seat Senate race (1,662 RVs, 2/16-21, MoE +/- 2.4%) shows little change since November, with former Rep. Rob Portman (R) still leading both potential Democratic candidates.

General Election Matchups
Portman 40 (+1 vs. last poll, 11/5-9)
Fisher 37 (+1)
Und 21 (-3)

Portman 40 (+2)
Brunner 35 (+1)
Und 27 (-4)

Among independent voters, Portman leads Fisher 39-27, and Brunner 40-28.

In the Democratic primary, Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher (D) has expanded his lead over Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner (D), but almost half of all Democrats remain undecided.

Democratic Primary Election Matchup
Fisher 29 (+5)
Brunner 20 (-2)
Und 48 (-3)

All three candidates appear to have work to do boosting their name recognition. At least 60 percent of voters say they hadn't heard enough about each to form an opinion of them. But generically, both parties fare poorly. The GOP has a 37 / 46 fav/unfav rating, while Democrats are viewed favorably by 38 percent and unfavorably by 50 percent of voters. The Tea Party movement, however, has a +9 net favorable rating, including a 36 / 20 split among independents.
