COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A poll shows Ohio voters are slightly more approving of the job done by Gov. Ted Strickland, and he has pulled ahead of Republican challenger John Kasich.
In the Quinnipiac University survey released Tuesday, 48 percent say Strickland is doing a good job, up from 45 percent in a similar poll released in November. Forty percent disapprove of the governor's performance.
The poll finds if the election for Ohio governor were held today, 44 percent would choose Strickland, 39 percent would vote for Kasich. The last poll had them tied at 40 percent.
Sixty-two percent now say they don't know enough about Kasich to have an opinion of him.
The survey of 1,662 Ohio voters was taken Feb. 16-21 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.4 percentage points.
