Antifa supporter Sarah Iannarone is now leading the Portland mayoral race, according to a new poll.
Iannarone leads incumbent Democratic Mayor Ted Wheeler 41% to 30%, according to a poll commissioned by the Portland Business Alliance, local paper Willamette Week reported on Monday. Her lead is well outside the poll’s four-percentage-point margin of error.
The poll found that 16% of voters plan to support a write-in candidate and an additional 13% of voters remain undecided.
Iannarone’s lead is a stark departure from the results of the first round of voting in May, when Wheeler won just under 50% of the vote, forcing a runoff between the two candidates. Wheeler’s popularity in the city has since plummeted.
Iannarone is an open supporter of Antifa, a decentralized, far-left movement whose adherents have unleashed violence in cities across America.
