Mahan's Poll After Swalwell Exit Shows Bigger Boost in Support Than Independent Poll
"The most recent poll was conducted by Emerson College and independently sponsored by Inside California Politics/Nexstar Media, sponsor of a statewide April 22 debate among the six highest-polling governor candidates. Mahan qualified for that debate."
"Just one month ago, the same Emerson College survey ranked Swalwell ahead of all candidates, with 17% support. One week after he suspended his campaign and resigned from Congress, his supporters scattered."
"Mahan has moved within striking distance of [Katie] Porter and [Tom] Steyer, the campaign declared. Each poll had similar margins for error of +/- 3 to 3.3%."
Polls indicate significant shifts in the California Governor primary race after Eric Swalwell's departure due to sexual assault allegations. San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan's support has more than doubled, surpassing Xavier Becerra. Mahan's campaign has invested $3 million in advertising, contributing to his rising visibility. Recent polls show Mahan gaining traction, moving closer to candidates Katie Porter and Tom Steyer. Meanwhile, former frontrunner Chad Bianco has seen a notable decline in support following a controversial ballot seizure incident.
