RE: MA-06 Poll Results: Moulton Leads Tisei by 8 Points

DATE: September 13, 2014

Democrat and veteran U.S. Marine Captain Seth Moulton enters the general election with an

early lead over Republican Richard Tisei, according to a recent DCCC survey of likely general

election voters in Massachusetts 6th

Congressional District.

In the congressional matchup, Moulton leads Tisei by 8 points (49% to 41%), with just 10% of

voters still undecided. Moulton enjoys especially strong margins among must-win groups within

the likely electorate, namely women (+11 point lead over Tisei) and older voters (+5 point lead

over Tisei).

For a first-time candidate,

Moulton has been

incredibly successful

sharing his personal story

and connecting with

voters across the district.

Of the 60% of voters

already familiar with him,

the rate of those whohold a favorable opinion

of him is impressively four

times as high as the rate

of those who hold an

unfavorable view. By

comparison, Tisei, a third

time nominee in the district (once for U.S. Congress, once for Massachusetts Lieutenant

Governor) is a known quantity; however voters opinions of him are mixed.

Massachusetts 6th

Congressional District is a true swing district. President Obama carried the

district in 2012 with 55.5% of the major party vote.

The data in this memo is from a survey of 432 likely 2014 general election voters conducted

September 13, 2014 in Massachusetts 6th

Congressional District. The margin of error is 4.7

percent.
