From Eric Dondero:

Fantastic news coming out of Ohio. Fiscal Conservative stalwart John Kasich has actually increased his lead over scandal-ridden incumbent Gov. Ted Strickland. Rasmussen reports that Kasich is up by 2 points over a similar poll done in May.

From Rasmussen:

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of the governor’s race in Ohio finds Republican John Kasich with a 47% to 40% lead over incumbent Democrat Ted Strickland - for the second month in a row. Three percent (3%) of Likely Voters in the state prefer some other candidate, and 10% are undecided.

In the last poll, Kasich had 47%, but Strickland was at 42%.
