A new Fox News poll in Ohio finds Mike Gibbons leading the GOP Senate primary with 22%, followed by Josh Mandel at 20%, J.D. Vance at 11%, Jane Timken at 9% and Matt Dolan at 7%.
The race is unsettled. One-quarter of voters (24%) are undecided — and about two-thirds of Gibbons’ (62%), Mandel’s (64%), and Vance’s (66%) supporters say they may change their mind.
