MILWAUKEE – A new poll from a well-respected pollster shows the race for Wisconsin governor tied at 49%-49% less than one week before the election.

The poll confirms that momentum in the final days of the campaign is firmly with Tom Barrett as the people of Wisconsin learn more about Scott Walker’s potential involvement in a criminal corruption case that has already resulted in 15 felony charges against six former Walker aides and associates.

“The more Walker stonewalls about whether he is the target of this investigation, whether he will release the emails that are at the heart of the probe, and why he is the only governor in America with a criminal defense fund, the more the people of Wisconsin view him as unfit for the governor’s office,” said Barrett for Wisconsin Communications Director Phil Walzak.
