Pam Bondi Bests George Sheldon and Perry Thurston in New Poll

A new poll from Gravis taken for conservative publication "Human Events" finds Attorney General Pam Bondi starts off with a solid lead over her Democratic rivals as she looks for a second term in 2014 but most voters remain undecided.

Bondi takes 30 percent when matched against House Democratic Leader Perry Thurston, D-Fort Lauderdale, who takes 14 percent, while the remainder of voters are undecided. Bondi takes 29 percent against former Deputy Attorney General George Sheldon who garners 11 percent.

The poll finds a majority of those surveyed -- 55 percent -- are unfamiliar with Bondi, while 25 percent approve of her and 20 percent disapprove. Despite his many years in public service, Sheldon is unfamiliar to 95 percent of Florida voters, though 1 percent approve of him and 4 percent disapprove of him. Thurston is a little better known but 91 percent are unfamiliar with him while 3 percent approve of him and 6 percent disapprove of him.

The poll of 932 registered voters in Florida was taken from Nov. 8-11 and had a margin of error of +/- 3 percent.
