• Among voters that rate their level of motivation to vote a 10 on a scale of 0 to 10, Crist
leads 58% to 34%, while Fried does better among those who do not rate their motivation
at a 10 (45% Crist – 36% Fried).

Methodology

GBAO conducted a survey of 600 likely Democratic primary voters in Florida on behalf of the
Crist for Governor campaign from June 23-26, 2022. The survey was conducted by telephone
using live interviewers, reaching voters on cell phones and landlines. The random sample was
drawn from a voter file and weighted to reflect the likely Democratic primary voter electorate.
The survey is subject to a 4.0 percentage point margin of error at the 95% confidence level.
