Tony Evers Democrat’s Top Choice in 2018 Election Preview; Voters Believe
Evers Has Best Chance to Beat Walker
Date: January 11, 2018
A new Public Policy Polling survey finds that the Wisconsin Superintendent of Public Instruction and Democratic candidate for Governor, Tony Evers, is the top choice for Democrats in the 2018 primary election. In a hypothetical preview of this election, Evers holds a sizeable lead with the plurality of voters (29%) supporting him increasing to 33% after learning more about him. Initially, 28% of voters were unsure of who they would vote for and this decreased to 17%. The closest candidates behind Evers are Kathleen Vinehout who received 11% initially and Paul Soglin who received 12% of the vote after voters learned more about him. With his favorability rating at 60%, it is no surprise that a plurality (35%) of Wisconsin Democratic voters think Evers has the best chance of beating Scott Walker in November. Evers
’ lead is built on by
strong support among a wide array of demographics, such as a plurality of women (34%), men (33%), very (33%) and somewhat (37%) liberal Democrats, moderate Democrats (32%), somewhat conservative Democrats (26%), white voters (35%), voters age 18 to 45 (37%), 46 to 65 (30%), and older than 65 (36%), after they were given more information about him. Key findings from the survey include: -
Wisconsin Democratic voters have definite issues they would like the next Governor to focus on. Health care is the most important issue to 29% of Wisconsinites, and education follows closely behind that at 23%. 17% of voters think environmental issues are the most important issue for the next Governor to focus on while 14% say jobs and the economy is the most important. PPP surveyed 747 likely Democratic primary voters in Wisconsin from January 8-10, 2018. The margin of error for the poll is +/- 3.6%. This poll was conducted by automated telephone interviews.
