Steve Brown Poll Shows Large Early Lead – April 23, 2008
A recent poll of primary voters in Missouri’s 73rd district shows that Steve Brown leads his competitor Stacey Newman among all demographics. The survey of 400 likely primary voters indicated that he is better known than Newman (38%/24%) and is very popular among those who do have an impression of him (34% net favorable; 4% net unfavorable). In a head-to-head matchup of the two candidates, Brown has a double-digit lead. Thirty-six percent said they plan to vote for Steve Brown while just 13% said they would vote for Newman. This nearly 3-to-1 advantage is mirrored in the strength of the candidates’ support; nearly a quarter (24%) strongly support Brown while only eight percent strongly support Newman.
