Good enough for now.

Once again, just a name-recognition game.

Lean takeaway OH and NH

Uh, that'd be pretty bold to say.  You're talking about a congressman who has yet to do more than barely start his campaign against current statewide officials.  That's obvious that doesn't affect the final results much, but it sure as hell increases the amount of Republicans giving no opinion.

This race is a tossup, and you can really see it when no one is even approaching 50%.  It's going to be a fight to the end for this senate seat, but I can't say the same about New Hampshire.

Fisher has lower  name recognition then you might think, his name is probably vaguely familiar to most Ohio voters.  This poll doesn't really mean anything except that Portman has gained name recognition (and he's still down .  It is really early but as of now, Fisher is clearly favored (in both the primary and the general).  However, if (god forbid) Brunner somehow is the nominee, Portman will end up winning easily.
