Two presidential candidates nearly even in MU poll

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin may be a battleground state, if the polls are to be believed, but Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump aren’t treating it like one. 

Both Clinton and Trump are focusing their time and money elsewhere with the election less than seven weeks away. 

Trump has not campaigned in Wisconsin in over a month and Clinton has not been to the state since the April primary. Neither side is spending money on campaign ads in Wisconsin yet. 

A Marquette University Law School poll released Wednesday shows the race continues to be about even. Clinton had 44 percent support among likely voters compared with 42 percent for Trump. 

The latest poll was conducted by phone Sept. 15 through Sunday, sampling 802 registered Wisconsin voters with a margin of error of 4.8 percent.
