A report today by Rasmussen Reports reveals Governor Blunt and Nixon are neck-and-neck in their poll numbers. Rasmussen shows Governor Blunt at 43 percent and Democrat Jay Nixon at 46 percent. The margin of error is +/-4.5 percent, which means that it is too close to call who is ahead in the contest.

Missouri's 2008 race for Governor is being called one of the most competitive in the nation, and Governor Blunt continues to steadily climb in the polls as Missourians have more opportunities to see his pro-jobs, pro-growth policies in action. Missouri voters like what they see under the leadership of Governor Blunt with tax cuts, greater funding for education and a better health care system for Missouri families.
