In a poll conducted over the weekend of a relatively large sample of very likely Republican primary voters, former President Donald Trump's endorsed candidates for two of the state's biggest races — Dr. Mehmet Oz for U.S. Senate and Doug Mastriano for governor — were leading the pack.
With the primary election on Tuesday, Oz, a cardiothoracic surgeon and TV celebrity, is in the lead with 28% of the vote, according to the Emerson College poll.
That's 10 points higher than Oz's showing last month in the same poll, but it's not the only big jump.
