The Blueprint Polling firm tested the Ohio Republican field for the upcoming Senate primary next week (4/21-24; 634 OH likely Republican primary voters; live interview), and yet another candidate is detected taking first place. This is the first survey that projects state Sen. Matt Dolan (R-Chagrin Falls), who is a minority owner of the Cleveland Guardians baseball club, in the top position and the fourth of the five major candidates who in one poll or another has led the field.
In this study, Sen. Dolan posts 18% support, just a point ahead of author J.D. Vance, with businessman Mike Gibbons, former state Treasurer Josh Mandel, and ex-Ohio Republican Party chair Jane Timken following with 13, 12, and 7% preference. Fox News was also in the field during virtually the same time period (4/20-24; 906 OH likely Republican primary voters; live interview), but they produce a much different result. According to this poll, it is Mr. Vance with the lead at 23% with Messrs. Mandel, Gibbons, Dolan, and Ms. Timken trailing with 18-13-11 and 8%, respectively. As both the Blueprint and Fox analyses illustrate, with less than one week remaining in the campaign, realistically four of the candidates still have a chance to catch a flyer at the end and claim the nomination. Early voting continues for the May 3rd primary election. Comments are closed.
