"Former Mayor Richard Riordan holds a double-digit lead against his GOP rivals in the gubernatorial primary and is running even with Gov. Gray Davis in a possible fall matchup, according to a Los Angeles Times poll released Tuesday.
The poll found Riordan receiving 34 percent support from people likely to vote in the March 5 primary, followed by Los Angeles businessman Bill Simon with 20 percent and Secretary of State Bill Jones with 13 percent.
A third of likely GOP voters, however, said they were undecided.
In a general election matchup, Riordan and Davis were neck-and-neck among registered voters, with 43 percent and 44 percent of the vote, respectively. The poll found Davis beating both Simon and Jones with the same margin, 51 percent to 33 percent.
*******
Let's see, Simon won the 'primary' big, and Davis' 18 point lead before the primary has shrunk to 14. Davis losing 8 points from 51 to 43 and Simon losing 4 points from 33 to 29. The 'undecided' going from 16 to 28. SHADY Gray's 'lights' are getting dimmer, IMHO.
good find!
Dump Davis!
