LCR Ally Rep. Cao (LA-2nd District) Leads Against all Opponents

Representative Ahn ‘Joseph’ Cao was shown to be a primary and general election leader by a recent survey released. Dr. Verne Kennedy of Market Research Insight surveyed 400 participants to discover the findings for Cao in the upcoming election. Representative Cao has been a supporter and key Member for the work that Log Cabin Republicans strives for. These survey results prove that “Inclusion Wins” in the Republican Party. A Republican takeover of Congress is not possible without the party being inclusive of all its members, Rep. Cao knows this. 

Key Findings from the Survey:

“The survey, conducted May 27 – June 2, 2010, shows Rep. Cao leading Cedric Richmond 51%-26% and Karen Carter Peterson 49%-30% in head-to-head matchups. When voters were asked if they would vote for Rep. Cao or “someone else,” Cao led 46%-29%. The Congressman has name recognition of 94%, 54% holding a favorable opinion of him and only 9% holding an unfavorable opinion.”

“The survey of 400 voters provides a survey error factor of 5.0% at a .95 level of confidence, meaning that if every voter in the Congressional District were interviewed, instead of this sample of 400, there is a 95% probability that results would be within 5% of those in this poll.”
