The race for Philadelphia mayor is close, according to a new poll released Friday, just weeks until the primary election.
"Momentum is on our side, as I’ve crossed the city, talking to voters about our message of a safer, greener, cleaner city with opportunity for all. It’s resonating with them," Parker said."Helen is positioned to win the mayoral race because of her unparalleled grassroots volunteer base.""…voters agree with Allan’s plan to deliver on community safety and fixing what’s broken.
The poll, paid for by the good government group the Committee of Seventy, and partners including the Chamber of Commerce, has a margin of error of 3.8 percent, with 20 percent of voters undecided. The Committee of Seventy believes ranked choice voting, in which voters rank their candidates 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, would result in a mayor with a mandate to lead. It’s why they asked for a ranking in their poll.
"80 percent of people found the ranked choice voting very easy and over half, after learning about the ranked choice voting, said they’d consider having this in Philadelphia," explained Lauren Cristella, with the Committee of Seventy. With the election on May 16th, the campaigns will sprint to the finish with a heavy push on television ads, door knocking and sharpening their get-out-the-vote effort, focusing on voters yet to make a choice.
"I think it shows us it really is anyone’s game and people could be comfortable with a few different candidates and they are waiting to see what the consensus is," Cristella added.
