Specifically, the polling revealed:

  • Marsha Blackburn continues a commanding lead over Stephen Fincher.
    • Marsha Blackburn leads Fincher by 53 points in a head-to-head ballot.
    • Blackburn has built strong and positive statewide name ID with Republican primary voters.
    • Blackburn’s strong showing isn’t just a matter of name ID.
      • Blackburn leads by 44 points among voters who have heard of both candidates.
      • She leads by 40 among those with opinions of both.
