A poll by Public Opinion Strategies on behalf of the Gibson for Congress campaign showed U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson, R-19th, leads his Democratic challenger, Sean Eldridge, 56 percent to 30 percent, the incumbent’s campaign announced today.

It was district-wide survey of 400 likely voters, reached via landline and cell phone Oct. 14-15 with a margin of error of +/- 4.9 percent in 95 out of 100 cases.

The announcement said the new findings are similar to those of a Siena College in September, which showed Gibson leading by 57 percent to 33 percent.

“Gibson is personally popular,” the statement continued.  “19th District voters have a very strong personal opinion of Congressman Gibson, 62 percent favorable-19 percent unfavorable.”  The 19th District includes Otsego County.
