RE: Florida Statewide Survey
DATE: November 30, 2017

Democrat Jeremy Ring currently leads in a head-to-head matchup with Republican incumbent
Jimmy Patronis in the race for Floridas Chief Financial Officer (Ring 37% - Patronis 35% - 28%
Undecided).

Ring (Undecided) Patronis

Uninformed Vote
for Florida's Chief 37% 28% 35%
Financial Officer

Ring leads Patronis despite a turnout model based on past off-year election results that gives a
6-percentage point Republican advantage in party registration among likely voters (Democrat
38% - Republican 44% - Independent 17%)1. Rings lead has the potential to grow should the
Democratic enthusiasm and turnout seen in recent special elections carry over to Floridas
November election. Ring has stronger support among Democrats (Ring 77% - Patronis 4%) than
Patronis does among Republicans (Ring 7% - Patronis 66%), and Ring also leads among
Independents (Ring 25% - Patronis 23%).

Jeremy Rings lead over Jimmy Patronis in an uninformed, head-to-head matchup shows Ring
has a path to victory on Election Day next November with a well-funded campaign that has the
resources to communicate his unique qualifications for the position of Chief Financial Officer.
