Key Findings
Four weeks out from Election Day, the ballot is tied. Holcomb and Gregg are even at 42%
of the vote, with Rex Bell receiving 3%.
Looking at the 15% of voters who remain undecided, it is apparent that Holcomb has a
greater opportunity to grow his support in the final weeks.
Among voters who have yet to commit to a candidate, 49% consider themselves to be
conservative, with 21% of them saying they are very conservative. Only 22% of
undecided voters consider themselves to be liberal, indicating that Eric Holcomb is wellpositioned to capture the majority of currently undecided voters.
