Poll: District 1 incumbents lead their races

The 2020 primaries are nine months away. Inweekly hired the Political Matrix to check the temperature of District 1 Republicans.

The polling service surveyed 422 likely Republican Escambia District 1 voters and found the incumbents in the race for County Commissioner and ECUA ahead. However, there are still a large number of undecided voters in these contested races–which isn’t unusual since the candidates haven’t started campaigning that much.

Jeff Bergosh has nearly a 12-point lead over Casey, with 36 percent undecided. In the 2016 GOP primary, Bergosh garnered 41 percent of the vote in a three-person race. Casey received 29.8 percent and Karen Sindel 29.4%.
