The Progressive Labour Party has a 13-point lead over the One Bermuda Alliance, in a newly released poll from Profiles of Bermuda.

The survey in April and May found that 46 per cent of people would have voted PLP in a general election, compared with 33 per cent for the OBA.

According to a press release from Profiles of Bermuda, a breakdown of the results shows 63 per cent of blacks pledged support for PLP, with 67 per cent of “whites and others” voting OBA.

The survey, conducted by Profiles “as a matter of public service”, involved 407 registered voters and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.8 per cent.
