Poll results released Friday show three times more Black voters undecided in St. Pete’s mayoral race, compared to the 2017 election.
Over 15% of Black voters remain unsure of their choice for mayor, according to the August 5, 2021 poll results released by FloridaPolitics.com on Friday.
Only 5% of African American voters were undecided four years ago, when polled on August 7, 2017.
Some of the indecision may be because this year’s election is an open contest (i.e., there is no incumbent in the running). In 2017, we had two well-known names on the ballot – former Mayor Rick Baker versus incumbent Mayor Rick Kriseman.
The Power Broker was born in 2005 to promote the people and organizations “who are moving, shaking and breaking new ground for and with the African American community.”
