The poll puts Kemp at 54% and Perdue at 38%. Trailing the two front-runners are Dr. Kandiss Taylor at 4%, and both Catherine Davis and Tom Williams at 1%. Two percent of the people surveyed were either undecided or had no opinion.
The statewide poll of 750 likely voters in the Republican primary which was conducted between Thursday, April 28 and Sunday, May 1 has a margin of error of 3.6%.
The release of the poll comes the day after the candidates squared off in an Atlanta Press Club debate, and on the first day of early voting in Georgia.
InsiderAdvantage Chairman Matt Towery said, “This survey was conducted up to and including the night of the most recent Atlanta Press Club debate. Given that the debate had all the excitement of a tax audit, it is extremely unlikely that it impacted numbers in any meaningful way.
