Rep. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and former Rep. Heather Wilson (R-NM) lead by a wide margin in their respective Democratic and Republican primaries to replace retiring Sen. Jeff Bingaman, according to a survey(pdf) released Thursday by Public Policy Polling.

Governor John Sanchez garners 24 percent support, while businessman Greg Sowards get 8 percent and Bill English has four percent.
