Deegan (D) leads Davis (R) by single point in Jacksonville mayor race, UNF poll finds

Donna Deegan barely leads Daniel Davis by 1 percentage point in the race for mayor as they plunge into the final month of an intense campaign where voters say crime is far and away the biggest problem facing Jacksonville, according to a University of North Florida poll.

The UNF poll put Deegan's support at 48% followed by Davis at 47% in a runoff race that will be decided May 16.

"We're looking at a razor-thin race that will undoubtedly come down to turnout," said Michael Binder, faculty director of the UNF Public Opinion Research Lab.

He's term-limited so he can't run for re-election.
