Mike Baselice surveyed 1,007 likely Republican primary voters on February 3 and 4.
PSA just completed a presentation over lunch to Republican lawmakers in Montgomery. In a news release, Baselice is quoted saying “since we didn’t poll name ID, but only a generic ballot, it appears most of the candidates have a lot of potential for upward momentum. It will all come down to who can get a message that resonates.”
PSA worked briefly last year for Rep. Bentley’s campaign for governor.
