A new poll by the University of New Hampshire shows Senator John McCain and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani in a statistical tie among Republican primary voters in the Granite State.

Giuliani appeared to pick up support among likely Republican voters in next year's New Hampshire primary compared to a similar poll last month, the pollster, Andy Smith, said.

In the poll McCain had 28 percent support, compared to Giuliani's 27 percent support. The poll had a margin of error of +/- 5.2 percent.

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney was next with 13 percent. Former US House Speaker Newt Gingrich received 9 percent.
