ZuWo Takes Edge In First ScottSurveys Poll

Mideast Governor ZuWo (Whig-KY) initially appeared to be in trouble in a previous survey, but our latest ScottSurveys poll shows the incumbent leading his opponent 10 to 6, garnering 62.5% of the vote to former Vice President Tmthforu94's 37.5%.

However, though Governor ZuWo currently has the edge in this race, that four vote advantage could swing either way down the long road to Election Day.

However, not all Mideastern residents are convinced of these numbers.  Says one constituent,

Whig poll spammers just like the Senate race.

ScottSurveys currently ranks this race as Lean Whig.

Northeast Government Approval Ratings

A recent ScottSurveys poll found that Northeast residents are generally happy with their governing officials, but Rep. Mondale84 (Lib-NJ) and CJO Belgiansocialist (Ind. Labor-NY) struggle with significant voter discontent.

The results of the survey are as follows:

It appears that Rep. Mondale84 could be in some serious trouble heading into next month's midterm election, when leftist and rightist Northeasterners battle for control of the Assembly.

On top of that, Governor Nix might want to consider tapping someone else for CJO when Mr. Belgiansocialist's tenure is up.  Belgiansocialist is famously known for his unsuccessful Senate campaign and advocacy for former presidential candidate Boss Tweed in the recent Supreme Court case.  Some suspect that these factors may have contributed to his low numbers this week.

Early Primary Polls &
Little Support For Military Action Against Iran

Both parties are shaping up to have a tremendously competitive primary season in the coming months, should some of the potential contenders throw their hats into the ring.

On the Labor Party's side, former Northeast Governor Snowstalker narrowly takes the title of frontrunner by a modest two vote lead.  Behind him are former At-Large Senator Nathan, Midwest Senator Redalgo, one vote for a candidate not on the poll, and two participants who have expressed support for President Napoleon this October.

Snowstalker: 36.4% (4 votes)
Nathan: 18.2% (2 votes)
Alfred F. Jones: 0% (0 votes)
PyroTheFox 0 (0 votes)
Redalgo: 18.2% (2 votes)
Seatown: 0% (0 votes)
hawkeye59: 0% (0 votes)
Other: 9.1% (1 vote)
President Napoleon: 18.2% (2 votes)
Total Voters: 11

On the other side of the aisle, the Whig Party primary shows no clear frontrunner.  Though former At-Large Senator Pingvin99 declared his candidacy for president last Monday, he runs behind a trio of other names: Mideast Governor ZuWo, Northeast Assembly Speaker and Lieutenant Governor Simfan34, and At-Large Senator Clarence.  ZuWo has denied any possible run in the near future.

Pingvin: 11.8% (2 votes)
ZuWo 23.5% (4 votes)
Simfan34: 23.5% (4 votes)
Clarence: 23.5% (4 votes)
TJ in Cleve 5.9% (1 vote)
JohanusCalvinusLibertas 11.8% (2 votes)
Other: 0% (0 votes)
Total Voters: 17

And the last party to be surveyed, the Imperial Bloc, could nominate just about anyone, if they decide to run a candidate this October.  IDS Representative Sjoycefla narrowly emerges as the early frontrunner with three votes.

Jbrase: 22.2% (2 votes)
North Carolina Yankee: 11.1% (1 vote)
PiT (The Physicist): 22.2% (2 votes)
Sjoycefla: 33.3% (3 votes)
AHDuke99 (Independent): 11.1% (1 vote)
Other: 0% (0 votes)
Undecided: 0% (0 votes)
Total Voters: 9


We also conducted a poll over the same period to find out how much support Senator Clarence's (W-FL) recent proposal to authorize military action against Iran has gotten, and found that Atlasians oppose such a move by more than a two-to-one margin.  The Whigs were the only party to show majority support.

Question: Do you support Senator Clarence's plan to authorize military action against Iran?

Liberals
Yes: 13.5% (1 vote)
No: 87.5% (7 votes)

Labors
Yes: 0% (0 votes)
No: 100% (5 votes)

Whigs
Yes: 86% (6 votes)

Mideast Gubernatorial: ZuWo Still Leads

Mideast Governor ZuWo (Whig-KY) continues to lead MCPR hopeful Tmthforu94 in our latest poll of the Mideast gubernatorial race, in spite of the recent migration of leftists in the region.

This race continues to rank as Lean Whig.

No Major Power Shift In Northeast Assembly Expected

It appears as though the leftists will likely retain their majority in the Northeast Assembly this month.  Rep. Alfred F. Jones (LAB-NY) is in the best position to keep his seat, as well as former Speaker Simfan34.  Although, Simfan recently stepped down from the Speakership, and it is unclear if he will run for reelection or not.

The poll also finds Rep. PyroTheFox (LAB-MA) dead last on the contender list, but this is likely attributed to his recent resignation, and he is not expected to run for reelection.  However, the Labors are expected to retain that seat, as contender bore (LAB-RI) wins seven of the ten votes cast.

This leaves Rep. Mondale84 (LIB-NJ), who was initially expected to have an uphill battle after a terribly poor showing in his latest approval rating, now appearing to be in a much more competitive spot.  Still, his chances of victory are still uncertain, and the Whig Party is currently running one candidate in the election, as well.  Rep. Winfield (I-RI) has not declared his intention to run for reelection at this time.

Judging only by the results of the poll, ScottSurveys projects that Jones, Simfan, bore, Winfield, and Mondale will have the best chances of victory later this month.

UPDATE: Speaker Winfield has announced that he will not run for reelection.

An addendum to the ScottSurveys poll: Rep. Winfield announced that he will not be running for reelection, so that leaves a space open for Goldwater.

Yep.

Looks like it's gonna be a boring election, after all. :/

Kalwejt Leads In Liberal Pre-Primary Poll

Vice President Kalwejt currently leads in the latest ScottSurveys Primary Poll.

Currently, it is expected that President Napoleon will seek reelection.  Should he not and the Liberal Party's primary be held early, Kalwejt appears to be on a good path to victory if he chooses to run.

At-Large Senate polls will be posted Tuesday.

Presidential Race: Napoleon Dominates In New Poll

A new poll shows President Napoleon leading two of his likely challengers for the October presidential race by a substantial margin.

Because many of Snowstalker's second preference votes will likely be added to Napoleon's vote total in the runoff count, Napoleon is in an especially dominating position should he decide to run for reelection.
