Posted by Kyle Trygstad | Email This | Permalink | Email Author
Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher leads Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner by just 7 points with five weeks to go until the May 4 primary, a new Quinnipiac survey finds (March 25-28, 978 Dem LV, MoE +/- 3.1%). Two-in-five primary voters remain undecided.
Fisher 33
Brunner 26
Und 40
Two-thirds of voters still haven't heard enough about Brunner to decide whether they have a favorable opinion of her, with 56% saying the same about Fisher. As for those who have, 33% hold a favorable view of Fisher and 24% of Brunner.
"Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher is ahead as the candidates enter the home stretch, but the lead is not that large and the size of the undecided vote with a relatively short period until primary election day underscores the potential volatility of the contest,” said Quinnpiac assistant director Peter A. Brown. "And the fact that Fisher is viewed as a better general election candidate appears to be a big reason he is currently ahead."
