A poll for the Human Rights Campaign, which previously endorsed state Sen. Sarah McBride, finds her leading in the Democratic primary for Delaware’s open House seat.
The survey, conducted by Democratic pollster Change Research, puts McBride in front with 44% of the vote while 23% say they support Delaware State Housing Authority director Eugene Young and 13% back state Treasurer Colleen Davis.
Somewhat surprisingly for a poll conducted a full year before the primary—and long before campaigns will begin spending in earnest—only 18% of respondents say they are undecided.
With the Governor’s race possibly being upended in the coming days with a possible scandal involving Lt. Gov. Hall-Long’s campaign funds, I wonder if Mrs. Davis or Mr. Young will reconsider this race and jump into the Governor’s race.
This poll makes me want to see other polls — Governor and Lt. Gov., esp. It’s Delaware, we’re small, so possibly not worth the money and energy, but it sure would be great to get this data.
