Kinky And Bell Gain In New Poll

The first new poll from Survey USA since June has just come out regarding the race for governor of Texas. Since it was June that the last poll came out, you would expect to see some movement, and there has been some. The only candidates who gained in this new poll are Kinky Friedman and Chris Bell. Kinky gained 2 points and Bell gained 3 points. They are now tied in this poll at 23% each.

The Survey USA poll tends to support what we saw in the last Zogby Poll. Both show Kinky and Bell gaining, and Grandma dropping like a rock. Survey USA shows Grandma losing 4 points since their last poll, and now sitting at 15%. But while Zogby showed Perry also with declining numbers, Survey USA has him neither gaining nor losing since their last poll in June. Here are the poll results for the Survey USA poll taken between 9/16/2006 and 9/18/2006:

Perry...............35%
Kinky...............23%
Bell...............23%
Grandma...............15%
Werner...............2%
Undecided...............2%
