The poll, taken June 1-3 of 600 likely voters, has state Sen. Creigh Deeds at 30 percent, former state Rep. Brian Moran at 27 percent and former Democratic National Committee chairman Terry McAuliffe at 26 percent.
The poll said that 17 percent of likely voters are undecided. It also has a sampling margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points, so the Democratic race is a toss-up.
Deeds has a slight lead among men, while the three candidates are essentially tied among women. Deeds leads among white and Hispanic voters but is in third place among black voters.
Republican nominee Bob McDonnell leads all three Democrats in a hypothetical November matchup. McDonnell, a former state Attorney General, leads Moran by 43 percent to 35 percent, McAuliffe by 46 percent to 33 percent and Deeds by 46 percent to 34 percent.
