Unfortunately for Simon, those issues haven't changed the polls. The most recent Field Poll gives Davis a 14 percentage point lead. No mention of the other SIX polls, showing Simon in the lead... Just this 10-day-old "field poll" of "adults", not registered voters or likely voters. Media biased? Hell no, just ask them.
When do you suppose there'll be a new batch of polls? I think there's huge undecideds, so any poll showing either in the lead is probably wrong.
