「大阪都構想」住民投票始まる　賛否は拮抗
that headline isn't stating that the yes-side and no-side are antagonistic or engaging in a competition or whatever - the main meaning is that

<upd_detl>It's not necessarily about fighting over something. In most of the example sentences it's similar to 匹敵 in usage/meaning.</upd_detl>
