Sheriff's Candidate Polling...

[drivingthru]

The poll was the most extensive poll done this cycle and was run by one of our developers. It not only measured the candidates "likely voterd" but also measured the issues and perceptions those voters had on each candidate.

Your belief is that Atkinson tried to take out Cooper, but in reality it was Cornman - the desperate one. Atkinson wants Cooper to do well in Miramar Beach - that is Ralph County - and every vote that Cooper gets helps Atkinson.

I am sure that those numbers have closed some, but that margin will not be overcome. It will be closer but it will be Atkinson IMO.

Alas the truth be know "...run by one of our developers" Would that be one of the same developers that has contributed in some way several thousand dollars to the Adkinson campaign (check voterfocus and take your pick)? I would hate to know I gave the farm away to a loser so I would try and doctor that spin myself. If its factual, congratulations to Mr Adkinson should it hold true as the only real poll that matters is Tuesday night. Either way, I think our Sheriff has his days numbered. I dont think I would hang my hat too long on the Miramar helps Adkinson theory. This is a different year.

I keep hearing Adkinson doesn't come to the South end, but I personally know of numerous events and times he has been down here. I know people who have attended two of his personal events in SoWal, one just last week. Also, I saw him down this was being taken to businesses and introduced. Looks to me like he is trying to reach out to SoWal.

As for the poll, if those numbers are accurate, I hope everyone sees the only choice to vote for if we truly want Johnson beat.

Since I cannot get an answer on the other races, I think the whole thing is a plant by some obvious Adkinson supporters to scare us into voting for him just to get rid of Johnson. Would have been more effective to show Johnson ahead with Adkinson right behind, but too late now.

I believe his wife, Erin is actually employed in the South End in Rosemary, and making the commute everyday. If Mike's wife is in South Walton every day, I can be certain he is concerned with public safety there. Based on the individual financial support his campaign has gain in the South, I must assume he has made some face to face contact.

I too have seen the same poll as Interested Girl, and to answer your question.

District 5 = Jones
District 2= Jones Sorry the actual percentages escape me at the moment.

And believe what you will, but this was actually done by a developer. And so far I cant find them as a donater to anyone as of yet.

You guys and girls are really into conspiracy theories. I am sorry I missed your question Idelwind - I was busy dealing with a "red chicklett" from someone else.

The poll was paid for by the developer that constantly runs polls. He has not given money to any candidate that I can find, but who knows.

The D4 race showed Cuchens winning the race.

The D5 race showed:

Jones - 1st in North / 4th in South
Hudson - 2nd in North /tie in south
Osborne - 3rd in noth/tie in south

Osborne and Hudson cannot win unless we double the turn out in Precinct 29 and 18.

Larry Jones by 21

Here is the problem - on Saturday 153 people voted - only 58 from Southern pecints.

So...why the h does a developer care who the Sheriff is, much less spend money on a ridiculous poll to find out?

 

[Interested Girl]

Most suppot all but they can save money by knowing who is most likely going to win or how to direct a cmpign strategy so that the chosen one will win.

Nothing rediculous about it if you ask me.

Knowledge is power. The Sheriff in a county actually has more power than a commissioner. They can't arrest you.

More evidence that the north-end will decide the primary this time. Like I've been suggusting all along... just wait and see, people.

Thank you for responding. I am pleased about the D-3 figure, I had heard other polling data that suggested a closer race. Dismayed about the D-5 results although I still have faith that SoWal will turn out when this becomes common knowledge. What was the North/South break on the Sheriff's race?
