The governor's approval rating has ticked upward, while President Biden's remains underwater in Minnesota
Gov. Tim Walz holds a 7-point lead over Scott Jensen, according to the Minnesota poll, but 10% of voters are still undecided in the race.
Gov. Tim Walz is leading Republican opponent Scott Jensen in the race for Minnesota governor one week ahead of the start of early voting, according to a new Star Tribune/MPR News/KARE 11 Minnesota Poll.
The poll of 800 likely voters shows Walz leading Jensen 48% to 41% in the governor's race, with 10% of voters still undecided. The governor's strongest support comes from women voters and those living in Hennepin and Ramsey counties, according to the poll, while Jensen is ahead in every other part of the state.
The first-term Democrat's lead in the contest comes as a slight majority of voters also approve of the job he's done as governor. The Minnesota Poll, conducted between Sept. 12 and 14, has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
