As cries for Chris Christie to enter the White House grow louder, a hypothetical matchup between the New Jersey Governor and Barack Obama shows that it could be a very close race.

According to Rasmussen Reports, Obama would garner 44 percent of the vote, whereas Christie would take 43 percent. This includes a 3 percent margin of error.

Christie has maintained that he will not enter the race. However, speculation continues to build, fueled by a recent high-profile speech from the Governor at the Ronald Reagan Presidential libray and statements from former New Jersey Governor Thomas Kean, who told the National Journal earlier this week that Christie was seriously considering a run.

The poll was conducted among 1,000 likely voters between September 28th and 29th.
