A poll from Marquette University Law School found that conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel, who was previously the state attorney general, was viewed favorably by 29% of the registered voters and unfavorably by 32%. His opponent, liberal Dane County Judge Susan Crawford was viewed favorably by 19% of the voters, compared to 23% who viewed her unfavorably.
