The Wason Center for Public Policy at Christopher Newport University released a poll [1] Thursday covering the U.S. Senate race in Virginia. The results showed Democratic incumbent and former Virginia Governor Mark Warner leads over the Republican challenger Daniel Gade:
Likely voters:
-Mark Warner (D): 52%
-Daniel Gade (R): 39%
Very likely voters:
-Mark Warner (D): 52%
-Daniel Gade (R): 41%
The Wason poll noted, “Warner’s lead is built on strong support among the traditional Democratic coalition of women, Black voters, younger voters and college-educated voters, but he also leads among independents and voters 45 and older. Gade has a slight lead among men and white voters and a significant lead among non-college-educated voters.”
The Wason Center interviewed 796 registered Virginia voters on cell phone and landline, September 9-21. The margin of error for the whole survey is +/-3.9%.
