Dear Robert,
Who is the Democratic Leader in the first major poll? -
Gammage Momentum Rising Every Day
Debate victory, weekend endorsements and now first major poll
shows
Gammage the Democrat with best shot at winning in November
With just three weeks left in the primary, the momentum
continues to build for the Gammage campaign.
First, on Thursday Bob clearly demonstrated why he's the
strongest Democrat in the race and the top messenger for
Democrats in 2006, winning the web-cast debate on WFAA in
Dallas. Articulating a clear message and the passion
necessary to rev up the Democratic base, Gammage showed why
his campaign continues to build momentum.
That momentum carried over to the weekend, as Bob secured the
endorsement of the Austin Progressive Coalition - a joint
endorsement of the Central Austin Democrats and the University
Democrats (University of Texas at Austin), together one of
the largest progressive groups in Texas - and the Texas
Southern University Democrats. Meanwhile at the Tejano
Democrat Convention in Houston, the statewide organization chose
not to endorse a candidate and, instead, encouraged the county
delegations to endorse. Experts predict Gammage will receive
the backing of the largest number of local Tejano Democrat
delegations.
And now, hard polling data shows what Texas Democrats
have already discovered: Bob Gammage is the strongest
Democrat with the best chance of defeating Rick Perry in
November.
According to a Rasmussen statewide poll, Gammage is the
stronger candidate across the board. With Gammage as the
nominee, support for Rick Perry, Carole Keeton Strayhorn and
Kinky Friedman all drop:
Perry 38%
Gammage 18%
Strayhorn 29%
Friedman 8%
If Chris Bell is the nominee, support for Perry, Strayhorn and
Friedman rises, and support for the Democrat drops:
Perry 40%
Bell 13%
Strayhorn 31%
Friedman 9%
(Rasmussen Texas Survey, February 6, 2006/M.O.E 4.5%)
"Our positive, progressive campaign for change is growing day by
day", Bob Gammage said. "Block by block, city by city, county by
county we are revitalizing the Democratic Party and building for
a better tomorrow."
