Inweekly called

Yesterday, Inweekly surveyed the voters in City of Pensacola Districts 5, 6 and 7, using the same questions that were in the UWF Haas Center poll for Mayor Ashton Hayward.

The Haas Center survey was skewed towards the easternmost part of the City – Districts 1, 3 and 4.

District 7 – which includes two housing projects and the Tanyards – only had 30 responses recorded in the survey that the mayor has touted as proof city residents believe city services have improved in the past year and the city is headed in the right direction.

If you live on the west side of Pensacola and missed a call from “Inweekly” or “Independent News” yesterday, it was our pollster calling.

On Sunday, we met our goal of 262 completed surveys for Districts 5, 6 and 7 yesterday over about a five-hour period.

For Mayor Hayward’s Community Survey, the Haas Center only surveyed 123 people in those districts over a five-week period but polled 252 people in the mostly white, more affluent districts 1, 3 and 4.

The western districts have slightly more residents that the eastern ones.

Results will be published in January.
