A-Bob Research Center: Mideast Political Demographics&Gubernatorial Survey 3

[ZuWo]

One more poll on Mideast demographics and the race for Governor.

Only participate in this poll if you're a registered voter in the Mideast, please. As usual, results will be released in the next days.

The first numbers (13 respondents) show some interesting trends. First of all, the race for Governor remains close between Clinton1996 and ZuWo, with Gass in third place. Secondly, no clear pattern emerges when it comes to the questions of what the ideal balance of power for the Mideast is and whether the Mideast Assembly should be controlled by the right, the left or by no political group at all. Interestingly, 7 of the 13 respondents say their political views are "far left" or "center left", 5 say that they are "far right" or "center right", and only one person considers himself/herself a "centrist". This suggests that these preliminary figures might skew to the left so more responses are wanted!

[ZuWo]

I've got 15 respondents so far. A couple more participants would be appreciated.

[ZuWo]

I'll give this poll one more day since we are still at 15 respondents.

[ZuWo]

I will extend this survey for one more day and hope that more people participate.

"(1) Gass3268/ (2) ZuWo - 1 voter (7.14%)
"(1) Clinton1996/ (2) Gass3268" - 5 voters (35.71%)
"(1) Clinton1996/ (2) ZuWo" - 3 voters (21.43%)
"(1) ZuWo/ (2) Clinton1996" - 3 voters (21.43%)

6. Where would you place yourself on the following political spectrum?

Center right - 3 voters (20%)

All in all, solid results for Clinton1996, who continues to lead in the race for Governor. It seems, however, that center-right and far-right voters are undersampled.
