13. You are correct it was a poll paid for by Turner campaign, but it was from a reputable

progressive polling agency, Tulchin Associates a firm that does a lot of polling for progressive candidates, causes, non-profit organizations

That being said, because it was a campaign poll, it is NOT an objective poll from an outside entity. That does not necessarily say the poll is not valid though, because the Turner campaign hired them to provide good information to help them plot their strategy, so I think it would be foolish to not take it seriously.

There are still a lot of undecideds, but the big problem is there are too many candidates, and those polling 1 or 2 percent add up. Unless some of those candidates drop out and consolidate behind one candidate, it will be an uphill battle.

Still it would be good to see what some outside pollsters come up with
