The poll of 600 likely voters carried a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. “In this dogfight between two former military pilots, Mark Kelly is on Sen. McSally’s six and closing,” said Mike Noble, OH’s chief of research. ADVERTISEMENTSeven months after she lost a closely fought battle against Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D), most voters have formed an opinion about McSally. Fifty-one percent of voters see her favorably, and 40 percent see her unfavorably. Kelly, making his first run for public office, is less well-known. More than a third, 38 percent, have no opinion of the likely Democratic nominee. Forty-two percent see him favorably, and 20 percent view him unfavorably. The survey is similar to OH’s last poll, conducted in February, that found McSally leading 46 percent to 44 percent, another statistically insignificant margin.

Gabrielle Giffords (D), raised more than $4 million in his first weeks as a candidate, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. McSally raised $2.1 million in the first quarter of the year. The poll was conducted May 1–2. Click Here: los jaguares argentina
