DescriptionA new Crosscut/Elway poll found 37% of voters would or could choose Democrat Bob Ferguson, Washington’s attorney general since 2013, as their next governor if the election was held now. Another 31%, however, said they would not consider voting for him in the fall. The poll revealed just the opposite about Republican frontrunner Dave Reichert, with 31% saying they would or could vote for the former congressman and King County sheriff and 38% saying Reichert will not be their choice.

Pollster Stuart Elway chose this unusual way to assess public sentiment – as opposed to a simple racehorse approach – “because it shows how fluid the race is at this moment and how far the candidates have to go before November.”
