The Marquette Law School Poll’s survey of Wisconsin considers the upcoming August 11 primaries for governor, including perceptions of the candidates, the desired qualities of candidates, and vote choice. Looking to the November election the poll, includes matchups between the possible nominees for governor, as well as generic preference in legislative races. The survey also looks at favorability of the candidates for attorney general. Additional items include perceptions of the parties, which issues voters regard as most important, how the economy is performing, building new data centers in Wisconsin, the adequacy of school funding, and property taxes. National issues include views of the Iran war, the effect of tariffs, and the outlook for inflation, as well as approval of President Donald Trump. 

Various poll findings will be synchronously noted on Twitter via the @MULawPoll account. A complete news release and poll data, including toplines, crosstabs, and slides from the discussion, will be available on the Marquette Law School Poll website, shortly after 1:15 p.m., following the event.
