Washington, DC (PRUnderground) July 26th, 2014
Human Events and Gravis Marketing conducted a random survey of 1,179 likely registered voters in Iowa regarding statewide candidates. The survey was conducted by automated IVR calls of likely voters between 7/17/14 and 7/18/14. The poll carries a margin of error of ± 3% with a 95% confidence level. Gravis used automated IVR polling to conduct the survey Gravis Marketing polled a registered voters list on the highly competitive Senate Race in Iowa and found the race to be within the margin of error. Based on the latest poll, current Democratic Congressman from Iowa’s 1st “The race is open and has drawn a lot of national attention,” said Doug Kaplan the head of Gravis Marketing, “the race is close and either candidate could win.”
Gravis Marketing also polled voters on the Iowa Gubernatorial election and found that Iowa Governor Terry Branstad (R) leads State Senator Jack Hatch (D) by a modest margin.
The race has been seen by many to be Branstad’s to lose given his length of service in the Governor’s office. “It is not a big lead but with Governor Branstad already at 50% it makes the race very difficult for Sen. Hatch,” Doug Kaplan stated.
The Secretary of State and the Treasurer races were also polled in this survey. In the Secretary of State race, former Iowa Republican Secretary of State Paul Pate and Democrat Brad Anderson are tied at 38%. The race might be decided by races that are at the top of the ballot and with so many undecided voters the race is in doubt on both sides. For the Treasurer race current Democratic Treasurer Mike Fitzgerald leads the former US Senate candidate Republican Sam Clovis 50%-34%. “This race has basically been decided, Treasurer Mike Fitzgerald is already at 50% and with his opponent far behind it is his to lose,” Doug Kaplan added.
