Hank Johnson 49 percent Cynthia McKinney 34 percent Undecided 17 percent. The tracking survey of 300 likely voters was conducted the evening of July 31, and has a margin of error of plus or minus six percent. "There has been some shift in African American voters in McKinneys direction," said InsiderAdvantage CEO Matt Towery. "However, the black vote remains split with local black leaders endorsing Johnson, who is trouncing McKinney among eligible white voters." The winner of the August 8 runoff election will go on to face Republican challenger Catherine Davis in the November general election. Posted by: Anonymoose 2006-08-01 |
