The Chicago Tribune/WGN-TV poll is based on telephone interviews with 602 Democratic and 580 Republican voters likely to participate in the Illinois primary on March 16; the margin of error is plus or minus 4 percentage points. The poll was conducted March 3-6.
Hull bottomed out during this time, so expect some sort of gains for him. Hynes can’t seem to move from right around 20 and Pappas can only do better with commercials breaking. Chico is just the odd man out.
Jack! just can’t seem to break it open to finish everyone off with the high undecideds, but probably is high enough to win. Maybe I’m just engaging in wishful thinking for our democracy, but I have to think that while Rauschenberger won’t win, he’ll pick up a big chunk of late deciders and be the surprise on election day. Oberweis and McKenna have topped out.
