The democrat running for governor in New Jersey Mikie Sherrill only has a single digit lead in a new poll out.

The Rutgers Eagleton poll released this week shows Sherill getting 44 percent of the vote while Republican Jack Ciattarelli gets 35 percent. Sherill had a 20 point lead in a Rutgers Eagleton poll near the start of July. The latest survey shows 17 percent of likely voters have not made up their minds.
