New Poll: Dan Koh holds commanding 15-point lead in MA-6 Democratic primary
Koh is at 35% one week out from the primary
Peabody, MA – A new poll released today shows Dan Koh with a commanding lead in the crowded Democratic primary to succeed Rep. Seth Moulton in Massachusetts' 6th Congressional District, as voters begin casting ballots with less than a week to go to Election Day.
The survey, conducted by Global Strategy Group from August 20 to 23, found Koh leading the field with 35% support among 400 likely Democratic primary voters — a 15-point advantage over his nearest competitors. Tram Nguyen is in second place at 20%, John Beccia is in third place at 12%, Jamie Belsito at 8%, Dr. Mariah Lancaster is at 3%, and Bethany Andres-Beck at 1%. Twenty-two percent of respondents remain undecided. The poll carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.
"Voters in this district are sick of Trump’s corruption," said Dan Koh. "This campaign hasn't taken a dime of corporate PAC money. That's exactly why we're going to beat Donald Trump's agenda and hold this administration accountable. Polls don't win elections, voters do, and we're going to keep earning every one of them between now and September 1."
Koh's emergence as the frontrunner in the primary comes alongside a string of high-profile endorsements, including from former President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and over a hundred local elected officials and labor unions. Koh has built his campaign around lowering costs for working families, protecting democracy, and standing up to the Trump administration.
With 22% of voters still undecided and the primary a week away, the Koh campaign says it is continuing an aggressive schedule of door-knocking, meet and greets, and paid media across the district through Election Day.
