Washington Post Poll Has Brown Leading Gansler 2-1

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- A Washington Post poll says Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown is leading by a 2-1 margin over Attorney General Doug Gansler in Maryland's Democratic primary for governor.

Of Democratic and Democratic-leaning independent voters, 34 percent support Brown, and 15 percent support Gansler. Heather Mizeur is supported by 8 percent. The poll says 43 percent of voters are undecided.

In the GOP primary, the Post poll says nearly half of voters surveyed are undecided. Larry Hogan has support from 17 percent. David Craig has backing from 13 percent. Charles Lollar has 10 percent, and Ron George has 4 percent.

The survey was conducted Feb. 13-16 among 1,002 adults. The error margin is 5.5 percent for the sample of 469 Democratic-leaning voters and 7 percentage points among the 290 Republican-leaning voters.
