SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Jon Huntsman Jr. is well ahead of fellow Republican Nolan Karras in a head-to-head matchup for the governor's office, according to a new Deseret News/KSL-TV poll.

Polls conducted by Dan Jones & Associates in May show that Huntsman leads Karras 58 percent to 19 percent. Against Democratic challenger Scott Matheson Jr., Huntsman would have 52 percent support compared with Matheson's 37 percent.

However, if it were a Matheson-Karras final, Matheson leads Karras 49 percent to 34 percent, Jones found.

Both Republican candidates to survive the state Republican convention and advance to the June 22 primary were circumspect about the poll results.

"It's nice to be ahead, better than behind, but there's a long way to go," Huntsman said.
