Newsweek reports:
Senate candidate Kari Lake has closed a polling gap in Arizona, where she previously trailed by 13 points to progressive Democrat Ruben Gallego.
The latest poll by Remington Research Group, conducted for conservative news site The Daily Wire, showed that Lake and Gallego are neck-and-neck on 47 per cent each ahead of November’s election.
This new poll, Remington’s first for the 2024 Arizona Senate Race, suggests a remarkable turnaround for Lake, who has trailed Gallego in every state poll since February, including one in May where she was 13 points adrift. Newsweek has contacted Kari Lake and Ruben Gallego for comment.
The new poll, which surveyed 638 likely voters in Arizona between June 29 and July 1, was backed by a partisan Republican sponsor, American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers, but Remington is a reputable pollster, with national polling aggregator FiveThirtyEight ranking it 28th on its list of 277 polling firms for its historical track record and transparent methodology, giving it a rating of 2.6 stars out of three.
Although she has consistently trailed in the polls, Lake’s campaign hopes have been recently reignited as she began to close Gallego’s six-month lead; he led by only one point in a June poll conducted by North Star Opinion Research.
To vote for Lake, the Primary Election in AZ is July 30th.
