Rasmussen: MN Gov race a free for all

Democrat Mark Dayton polls ahead of Republican Tom Emmer but trails Republican Marty Seifert. Seifert polls ahead of Democrat Margaret Anderson Kelliher but is tied with Democrat R.T. Rybak. Confused? Well it appears that Minnesota voters asked to weigh in on the governor's race are as well.

Rasmussen Reports polled 500 likely voters on Minnesota's race for governor. It shows that the field is wide open.

Meanwhile, 42% of those polled favor President Obama's health care plan while 53% oppose it.

President Obama's approval rating is also split in Minnesota. 49% of those polled approve of the job he's doing. 49% disapprove.
