NEW POLL: Peter Barca Locked In Tight Race With Bryan Steil

New DCCC polling shows clear warning signs for Bryan Steil in Wisconsin's First Congressional District. Peter Barca trails Steil by just three points - within the margin of error. They're virtually tied with the Independent voters they need to win, and Peter leads with voters who are familiar with both candidates.

While Steil fails to hit the crucial 50% mark, Peter's name ID is just starting to increase, giving him more room to grow with voters as we move closer to Election Day.

DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
"Peter Barca has spent his life serving Southeast Wisconsin and trying to make it easier for families to get ahead. Meanwhile, Bryan Steil couldn't be more out of touch, from his support for overturning Roe v. Wade to his attacks on Social Security and Medicare. As voters continue to see this contrast, they'll be more than ready to elect Peter in November."

In 2022, DCCC Analytics Polls were proven to be more accurate compared to public polling throughout the cycle. DCCC Analytics polls predicted the ultimate winner in 92% of polls in the final 60 days before Election Day.
