A new poll shows Sen. Elizabeth Warren would comfortably beat former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling if he ran against the senator in 2018.
Schilling has said he wants to run against Warren, but at the time said he needed to talk to his wife about it first. There have been no updates about that conversation since.
In a hypothetical race, Warren would get the support of 58 percent of those polled while Schilling would have 24 percent.
Only 18 percent of those polled had a favorable opinion of Schilling and 41 percent felt unfavorably. A little more than a quarter said they were undecided and 14 percent said they had never heard of him.
Of Warren, 56 percent said they had a favorable view of the senator, 31 percent unfavorable and 10 percent said they were undecided.
Like Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, Schilling has been known to make inflammatory remarks about various groups, including Muslims and transgender people, which led to his firing from ESPN.
He started an online talk show this week for right-wing Breitbart News, where he was taking calls Friday morning.
