FLORIO MAINTAINS LEAD
With just a few days left before the election, voters favor the incumbent Jim Florio over the challenger Christine Todd Whitman by a margin of 48 to 39 percent among likely voters. However, there are signs that many New Jerseyans are still in the process of selecting a candidate to vote for. Since a poll taken in mid-October Florio's support has declined 4 percentage points and the percentage of undecided voters has increased from 8 to 13 percent. In addition, when different types of voters describe who they are going to vote for, the margin between the candidates changes.

As the 1993 gubernatorial campaign enters its final two weeks, voters are divided over which candidate would do a better job across a number of issue areas. The issues that Whitman has the greatest edge over Florio are holding down taxes, creating jobs, and holding down auto insurance costs. In comparison, more voters feel the Republican challenger would do a worse job than Florio has done in dealing with the issue of gun control, protecting the environment, and reforming the welfare system.
