Keep in mind that a partner in the firm that conducted the survey, Devin Iverson, is also McIver's campaign manager.

On a city-wide scale, right now, most people are not paying attention. The question might as well be, "who's name do you recognize most". People will only really start paying attention to issues and positions come mid-september. The others besides McIver, need to establish themselves as a contender then people will weigh their decision amongst those candidates.

That said, this particular poll appears incredibly biased and has about as much credibility as the AGN poll which placed Wayne Stewart in the lead and McIver at 8%.
