Over the weekend, the Maine Sunday Telegram released poll results showing Democrat Mike Michaud in a statistical dead heat in the governor's race. The poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center, found Michaud with 40 percent support, to Republican Gov. Paul LePage's 36 percent, but a margin of error of 4.3 percent. Fifteen percent supported independent Eliot Cutler and 7 percent told pollsters they were undecided.
The pollsters talked with 527 likely voters June 12-18.
