In a new ad by the Hovde campaign, Baldwin says, "Donald Trump might be one of the most offensive, hateful and unacceptable presidential candidates we've ever had. So what does that say about the people who support him?"

The ad will run on television across Wisconsin starting Tuesday and is part of an ongoing multimillion dollar statewide ad campaign. 

"Tammy Baldwin hates Trump and Trump voters, just listen to her own words when it comes to what she thinks about them. Much like Hillary Clinton, the disdain Baldwin has for Wisconsin's Trump voters will haunt her on Election Day," Hovde spokesman Zach Bannon said in a statement. 

In response, a Baldwin spokesperson told Fox News Digital in a statement, "Tammy Baldwin fights for all Wisconsinites no matter who they are, who they vote for or where they live. That stands in stark contrast to her opponent Eric Hovde who has literally called Wisconsinites deplorable, Democrats a 'curse to society' and insulted our farmers, seniors, young people, women, Black men, Native American communities and more."

The survey was conducted between Oct. 3 and 7 and included 1,073 likely voters. It had a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.

Split-ticket voting across parties has become increasingly rare, and with the Senate race coinciding with a presidential election, the winner could very well rely on which party takes the White House. 

With roughly two weeks until Election Day, many have already cast their ballots early and by mail.
