Pollster Scott Rasmussen released a poll of the Illinois Governor's race (4/5/2010, 500 LV, +/- 4.5%):

Bill Brady (R) 45% (-2)
Pat Quinn (D) 38% (+1)

Key graf:

The race in President Obama's home state has tightened slightly since last month, when Brady was 10 points ahead. Quinn, who became governor following the impeachment last year of fellow Democrat Rod Blagojevich, continues to fall far short of the 50% support viewed as critical for incumbents at this stage of a campaign. Perhaps most telling at this point is the poor showing he's making in a state that trends Democratic.

Brady leads by .7 in the RCP average.
