With 3 weeks to go until the Republican Primary
Election in Virginia's Fifth Congressional District , Robert Hurt has
opened up a 25-point lead over all opponents with likely Republican
primary voters
Chatham, VA - With Primary Day
21 days away, we wanted to give you some real scientific polling data of
where
the race stands today. Glen Bolger, one of the most trusted and accurate
Republican Pollsters in the United States (and Bob McDonnell and Ken
Cuccinelli's
Pollster) from Public Opinion Strategies conducted a survey of 300
likely Republican primary voters in
Virginia's Fifth Congressional District on May 10th and 11th.
Please see the link below to our website with the release from Public
Opinion
Strategies as well as an official statement from Robert Hurt. The
survey
compares results between polls conducted for the Hurt for Congress
Campaign,
the first in February, which was a 400 sample of GOP primary voters, and
the
most recent.
The results were not based on
a discussion of any material, positive or otherwise, concerning any
candidate. The survey asked, quite simply, who are you planning to vote
for in the June 8 primary for Congress?
After reviewing the key
findings, Robert Hurt, conservative Republican Candidate for Virginia's
Fifth
Congressional District released the following statement:
"These numbers are
incredibly encouraging. Our strong showing proves that our message and
my
record of limited government, tax cuts for Virginia small businesses and
families and cutting wasteful government spending is resonating with
voters. It's
obvious that my opponents are aware of these results as some are already
launching negative attacks. We will not be deterred by campaigns
desperate
to make an impact through negative campaigning.
Over the course of the
next three weeks, we will take nothing for granted. We will continue to
travel The Fifth District listening to Virginians' concerns about an
out-of-control Washington that taxes too much, borrows too much and
spends too
much. We will work around the clock to make sure voters know I'm the
pro-jobs,
pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment conservative with a record to prove it.
There's a lot of work to be done, but we're running the kind of grass
roots
campaign that will win this primary and defeat Tom Perriello in the
fall."
