A recent poll has delivered a devastating blow to Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake. The conservative former news anchor has been trailing significantly behind her GOP primary rivals, with only 11% support compared to frontrunner Matt Salmon’s 46%.
Lake’s campaign had been hoping for a strong showing in the poll to boost her chances in the upcoming primary election, but the results have dealt a significant setback to her campaign. The poll, conducted by OH Predictive Insights, also showed that Lake’s unfavorable rating has jumped to 44%, up from 30% in a previous poll.
This latest polling data comes as a blow to Lake, who has been struggling to gain traction in a crowded field of Republican candidates. Despite her high name recognition from her time as a television news anchor, Lake has failed to appeal to a broad base of GOP voters.
Lake’s campaign has faced controversy in recent weeks, with reports of internal strife and financial difficulties. The latest poll numbers suggest that her campaign may be in serious trouble as the primary election draws closer.
Meanwhile, Salmon, a former congressman, continues to lead the pack with strong support from Arizona Republicans. His campaign has focused on issues like border security and conservative values, resonating with voters in the state.
As the primary election approaches, Lake will need to work quickly to turn around her campaign’s fortunes if she hopes to secure the GOP nomination. With Salmon’s commanding lead in the polls, Lake faces an uphill battle in the race for Arizona’s governorship.
