DENVER  | A new poll shows that Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper has a comfortable lead over his potential Republican challengers, backed by support from women and unaffiliated voters.

The poll from Quinnipiac (KWIHN’-ih-pee-ak) University released Wednesday found that 52 percent of Colorado voters approve of the job Hickenlooper is doing. Voters also gave him a narrow vote of confidence for another term, with 47 percent saying he deserves re-election and 43 percent against it.

The poll indicates Hickenlooper’s closest Republican rival is former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, where the Democratic governor leads 47-40 percent. The poll shows women backing Hickenlooper 53 percent to 34 percent.

The poll, taken from April 15 to April 21, surveyed nearly 1,300 registered voters and has a margin of error of 2.7 percentage points.
