CLEVELAND, Ohio - A new poll from Baldwin Wallace University's Community Research Institute shows the Republican and Democratic frontrunners in the governor's race are up big heading into Tuesday's primary.

Democrat Richard Cordray and Republican Mike DeWine both led their respective party's primaries, though more than 40 percent of respondents in the Democratic race were unsure of who they'd vote for. The poll results track with other publicly available polling and, if accurate, match predictions from political observers around the state about the outcome of Tuesday's election.

The poll was conducted by Qualtrics and included a random online sample of 811 from April 24 to May 2. The margin of error is 3.5 percent, though it is larger for the subgroups.

Tom Sutton, political science professor at Baldwin Wallace and director of the Community Research Institute, said the results are raw data and not weighted, even though there were a higher number of women respondents than usual.

Democrats

On the Democratic side, Cordray, the former director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, led the pack of four with 31 percent while former U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich sat at 15 percent. State Sen. Joe Schiavoni showed 7 percent support, while former Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O'Neill had 6 percent.

The numbers are good news for Cordray, who at one point in another poll was neck-and-neck with Kucinich. The former congressman has stumbled in recent weeks, especially after Kucinich initially failed to disclose a $20,000 payment for a speaking fee from a group sympathetic to Syrian President Bashar Assad.

The Cordray campaign seized on the payment, as well as Kucinich's late disclosure of his 2015 and 2016 tax returns.

However, 41 percent of respondents were undecided with just days left.

Republican

DeWine, Ohio's attorney general, fared even better than Cordray in his respective primary with 52 percent favoring him over Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor, who was at 25 percent. A quarter of respondents remained undecided.

Taylor had made gains in other polls on DeWine, especially after a negative ad blitz in Southwest Ohio. The DeWine campaign responded in kind by blanketing the state in television and radio ads - both positive and negative.

In the Senate race, U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci of Wadsworth leads the GOP field in the contest to challenge Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown. Renacci, at 25 percent, was still well below a full majority while his primary challenger, Cleveland businessman Mike Gibbons had 11 percent support. Three other challengers - Melissa Ackison, Don Elijah Eckhart and Dan Kiley - all registered in the single digits.

Fifty-five percent of respondents said they were still undecided.

State Rep. Robert Sprague also led former Ashtabula County Auditor Sandy O'Brien in the treasurer's race 29 percent to 17 percent with 54 percent undecided.

Respondents were split over whether they would vote for Republican President Donald Trump in 2020 or if they would vote for a generic Democrat. Trump carried the state by 8 percentage points in 2016.

About 41 percent said they would support Trump while about 44 percent said they would support the generic Democrat.

Ohio GOP Gov. John Kasich performed better on the question against a generic Democrat, with 37 percent saying they would vote for Kasich and 31 percent saying they would vote for a generic Democrat.

Guns, education and marijuana

The poll also asked respondents about a number of issues. Three-quarters of respondents said they favored an increase in K-12 funding while 44 percent opposed increasing support for charter schools.

Almost two-thirds approved of limiting the sale of assault weapons. Respondents were split on allowing teachers to carry firearms in schools, with 45 percent supporting and 43 percent opposing.

More than half of respondents also approved of legalizing recreational marijuana.

More than 71 percent of those polled said they supported maintaining current state Medicaid funding for increased access to insurance.
