Sherrod Brown up by 8%
Dr. Acton tied.
The crosstabs and other data suggest a challenging environment for the GOP, with candidate opinions ossified and Democratic winning issues taking priority over GOP ones.
Basically, it says Sherrod Brown is looking increasingly strong and he was already competitive.
Dr. Acton is consistently close and may be breaking out.
