| Description | Gov. Pat Quinn leads both of his potential Republican general-election opponents in a poll released this morning.
An independent survey of 1,200 likely Illinois voters also shows that Quinn would have a greater advantage over Brady, a downstate businessman and state senator, than Dillard, a suburban Chicago state senator.
Victory Research conducted the poll from Thursday through Sunday, starting on the day that Illinois Comptroller Dan Hynes conceded to Quinn the Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
Brady and Dillard, the top two vote-getters in the Republican primary, are locked in a waiting game as Illinois election officials certify results from the Feb. 2 primary. According to The Associated Press, just 406 votes separate the two men, with Brady in the lead.
In the poll, Quinn leads Brady by nearly 11 percentage points. His lead over Dillard is about half that size. Rich Whitney, the Green Party's nominee for governor, fares slightly better with Brady in the race, with 3.9 percent of the vote rather than 3.1 percent against Dillard and Quinn. |
