rasmussenreports
Republican Brian Sandoval earns his highest level of support yet against his Democratic challenger, Rory Reid, in the race to be Nevada's next governor.

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds Sandoval receiving 58% of the vote to Reid's 33%. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate, while seven percent (7%) are not sure.

Sandoval, a former federal judge and state attorney general, has consistently held a modest lead over Reid, son of Senate House Majority Leader Harry Reid. In surveys dating back to early February, support for Sandoval has ranged from 45% to 58%. In those same surveys, Reid has earned anywhere from 31% to 40% of the vote. Early last month, Sandoval led Reid 52% - 36%.
They also asked Nevada voters how Obama is doing....'The One' has a 63% disapproval rating in Nevada, a state he won by nearly 13 points over John McCain in 2008


*How would you rate the job Barack Obama has been doing as President … do you strongly approve, somewhat approve, somewhat disapprove, or strongly disapprove of the job he’s been doing (Nevada voters)
