The survey of 500 registered voters, conducted Jan. 13-17 for WWL-TV, gives Landrieu 45 percent and Henry 14 percent of the vote. Lawyer Rob Couhig and businessman John Georges, who so far has invested $1.5 million of his own money in the race, are tied for third place at 8 percent.
Bringing up the rear in the poll were fair-housing activist James Perry receiving 3 percent, followed by former Civil District Court Judge Nadine Ramsey at 2 percent.
The survey was done by Clarus Research Group, a Washington, D.C., firm headed by political consultant Ron Faucheux, who has close ties to the Landrieu family, It has a margin of error of 4.4 percent. |
