A KSTP/Survey USA poll shows that Republican Tom Emmer leads his three DFL rivals in the race for governor. I-P candidate Tom Horner, who has yet to win his party's endorsement, hovers around ten percent in the poll.

It should be noted that the poll was put in the field right after Emmer won the GOP endorsement (Checking on this. I thought broadcast showed polling dates but it wasn't clear after I watched a second time).
