Retired Long Beach Police Chief Robert Luna has gained support among likely voters in the race for Los Angeles County sheriff, solidifying his lead over incumbent Alex Villanueva, according to a new poll.
As more people have picked a side, the composition of the candidates’ bases of support have remained largely unchanged from previous months, the recent poll indicated.Democrats and liberals still tend to heavily favor Luna, while Republicans and conservatives support Villanueva as fervently. Luna is ahead 50% to 21% among registered Democrats, while Villanueva leads 65% to 16% among registered Republicans.
The Sheriff’s Department has been mired in controversy under Villanueva, who has tried to position himself as a lone defender against what he sees as ineptitude and malfeasance among other elected officials. The strategy has left him largely isolated. “The sheriff’s race is not a top of mind race for voters,” DiCamillo said, adding that much more attention has been given to the Los Angeles mayoral race. “Certainly the information getting out to people is probably mostly negative about Villanueva, because again, his image rating for an incumbent is unusually weak.”He’s still not well known. In the recent poll, 45% of likely voters said they still have no opinion of him, compared with 54% in September.
