Winter Springs, Fla. – Gravis Marketing, a non-partisan research firm based in Winter Springs, Fla. recent conducted a random survey of 694 Democratic voters regarding potential match-ups for the Democratic Presidential Primary. The poll was completed using Gravis Marketing IVR automated telephone technology and carries a margin of error of plus / minus four percent and was completed November 19 – 20, 2014.
The first question asked of Democratic voters in Florida was whether they approve or disapprove of the job performance of Democratic President Barack Obama. According to the results of the Gravis Marketing survey, 73 percent of registered Democrats in Florida support the President’s job approval, while 20 percent disapprove. Seven percent were unsure as to their opinion on this question.
The scope of the Gravis poll then shifted to asking about potential match-ups for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States in 2016. “If the Democratic Primary election for President were held today and the candidates were Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren, whom would you vote for?” When asked to choose between two candidates, the results of the Gravis poll indicated that Hillary Clinton currently holds a 61 to 26 percent advantage over Elizabeth Warren – with 13 percent undecided at this point.
The next question expanded the potential field of candidates considerably by asking; “If the Democratic primary election for President were held today and the candidates were Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, Andrew Cuomo, and Martin O’Malley, who would you vote for?” Again, Clinton received the lion’s share of support, by capturing more than half of the potential vote. Receiving less than 15 percent support was Elizabeth Warren, followed by Joe Biden, Martin O’Malley and finally Andrew Cuomo.
