In the race for U.S. Senate the poll includes a first look at vote choice between Sen. Tammy Baldwin vs. Eric Hovde and favorability ratings for each. Views of national and state issues are included, along with job-approval ratings for President Joe Biden and Governor Tony Evers, and favorability ratings of former President Donald Trump, Sen. Ron Johnson, among others. Issues include a measure of the most important issues to voters, economic performance both nationally and in Wisconsin, abortion policy and more.
