RALEIGH, N.C., Jan. 10 (UPI) -- Voters peg Mitt Romney as the Republican who could give Democratic President Barack Obama a run for his money in Nevada in 2012, a survey indicates.
The former Massachusetts governor, who won the 2008 Republican caucus in Nevada and has a strong base among native Mormons, trails Obama by 1 percentage point in a hypothetical 2012 election match-up. Other mentioned candidates trail the president by up to 13 percentage points in Nevada, results of the Public Policy Polling released Monday indicated.
