NJ-GOV: Democrats neck and neck in New Jersey governor's primary: Poll

Several of the Democrats running for governor of New Jersey are neck and neck with each other less than two months away from the June primary, according to a new poll released Friday.

The results from Rutgers University’s Eagleton Center for Public Interest Polling shows Rep. Mikie Sherrill with a slight lead at 17 percent support, though she’s followed by Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop with 12 percent, trailing within the margin of error. New Jersey Education Association President Sean Spiller received 10 percent, and Rep. Josh Gottheimer and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka each received 9 percent.

Former state Senate President Steve Sweeney had 7 percent. About a third said they were unsure who they support, and 4 percent said none of these candidates.

The race is to succeed Gov. Phil Murphy (D), who is term-limited after being elected to twice.
