Democratic Governor John Baldacci earns no more than 39% support at most for his reelection bid when matched against any of three possible Republican opponents.

Baldacci earns the highest support when matched against former Congressman Dave Emery. But he still trails slightly in that match-up, with Emery leading 42% to 39%. Fourteen percent (14%) are unsure, 5% would pick another candidate.

Baldacci comes out ahead only when pitted against State Senator Peter Mills, leading 37% to 31%. In this scenario, 18% of Maine voters are unsure which they'd pick, and 13% would vote for somebody else.

When the proposed foe is State Senator Chandler Woodcock, Baldacci trails by six points, 36% to 30%. With a choice between Baldacci and Woodcock, 15% prefer "other" and 20% are "not sure."

Since the governor is far better known than his potential opponents, the high number of undecided voters cannot be of much comfort to him.

Only 41% of all voters approve of the Governor's Job Performance. Fifty-five (55%) disapprove either "somewhat" (21%) or "strongly" (34%).

If there's good news in this survey for the incumbent Democrat, it's that Maine voters aren't pleased with President Bush either. Just 35% say the President is doing a good job with the economy, 47% say he's doing a poor job. Forty-nine percent (49%) think he's doing a poor job in Iraq as well.

Sixty-seven percent (67%) regard Iraq as a more important issue than immigration. Fifty-five percent (55%) support the idea of building a barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border to help stem illegal immigration.
