According to the survey, Cameron has gained three points on the ballot test while Craft has lost six percentage points since last month’s survey of the Republican primary.

The 13% of undecided voters were asked which candidate they lean towards, and when that vote is added to initial support, Cameron’s support increased to 35%, while Craft held 18%, and Quarles increased to 15%, according to the poll.
