A new poll of likely GOP primary voters has surprising – and welcome – news for Dr. Kelli Ward.
The poll asked Arizona Republicans who they would vote for in the August election between Ward, Martha McSally, and Joe Arpaio.
ABC 15 reports:
Ward came out ahead, with 36% of the vote, compared to 27% for McSally and 22% for Arpaio.
These latest numbers show a huge swing since a January poll, conducted the same day Arpaio announced his Senate run, which had the former Maricopa County sheriff in a dead heat with then-front-runner McSally. In the January 9 results, Ward came in with the lowest percentage of the three candidates.
According to the Wednesday poll, 15% of likely GOP voters are still undecided in their primary choice.
The winner will go on to face the presumptive Democratic nominee Rep. Kyrsten Sinema in the November general election.
The Cook Political Report puts the general election in its most competitive category: toss up.
