Its borderline whether the poll is even accurate. It could well be that Crockatt is sitting at 40%, Turner at 20% and Harvey somewhere in between. That's for the most accurate part of the poll! Once you get down to these little sub-samples where the sample size is less than 30 you have many more sample errors and variances in general.
This is all true but it's all we have to go with. So it's either you disregard all of the findings or you try to interpret them however flawed. You chose the former I chose the latter.
