New Poll Shows Fedele Overtakes Foley

by Jim Conroy on August 8, 2010

I’m writing to share with you some very exciting campaign news as we enter the final hours before election day. This week, our campaign commissioned a poll of 300 likely Republican Primary voters and I think you will find these results startling:

  • Mike Fedele – 28%
  • Tom Foley – 24%
  • Oz Griebel – 15%
  • Undecided – 33%

That’s right, heading into Tuesday’s election, Mike Fedele is now in the lead!

Republican pollster Neil Newhouse said of the poll’s findings:

“The combination of Foley’s arrest record, his efforts to prevent the Fedele campaign from receiving public financing and the exposure of his mismanagement of the Bibb Company have contributed to the erosion of his support and growing doubts about his candidacy.”

“Fedele clearly has the momentum in this race and is in position to pull off a historic comeback.”

It should come as no surprise that the Stamford Advocate and Tom Foley’s hometown newspaper The Greenwich Time both this week chose to endorse Mike Fedele for Governor. The Greenwich Time said this of Mike Fedele:

“On top of his government experience, there is Mr. Fedele’s life story. He’s a kid from the West Side of Stamford, an immigrant whose father was often without work. Mike Fedele has made himself wealthy, but he can relate to the lives of all Connecticut residents. That’s an intangible that cannot be overlooked.”

But this new poll also tells us that our job is not over – the race remains close, and many voters are still undecided. With your help tomorrow and on Tuesday, we can turn out our vote and share Mike’s message of conservative change with the remaining undecided voters.

Thank you for your continued hard work and support, we look forward to celebrating with you on Tuesday.
