DescriptionThe race for the GOP nomination for governor looks nearly even among the two front-runners in a new poll shared with the three Republican candidates this week.

U.S. Rep. Tom Osborne received 44 percent support, while Gov. Dave Heineman received 43 percent in the telephone survey done on behalf of Republican Senate candidate Pete Ricketts.

The third candidate for governor, Dave Nabity, got 6 percent, and 7 percent of respondents said they were undecided.

The telephone survey was conducted April 9 and 10, with 501 respondents who said they were likely GOP primary voters. It had a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points.

The poll makes clear what all three Republican candidates have been saying for some time: Their May 9 primary battle is a tight, competitive race.
