According to RCP Broun was tied for 2nd in the last poll. Don't know why Kingston surged.

Money. Kingston has the most of it from his conections with establishment donors. Perdue is a self-funding millionaire.

The polling data out of Georgia is rather erratic ... PPP had Broun @ 27% two weeks ago.

Who is Perdue?When did he enter the race?

This poll tells me they surveyed low info voters. Voters who probably won't be voting in the primary.

David Perdue is the cousin of fmr. Gov. Sonny Perdue. Granted, he put out some big ad buys, but his 29% is largely due to last name recognition.

The rest of the poll seems to be in line, however. Kingston put out a big ad buy. I saw his commercial 3-4 times, and I hardly watch tv.

Its really a 5-person race.

I can tell you right now that Broun has signs everywhere, and I have no seen any other signs. I've seen some bumper stickers of his too (including mine). He is the grassroots candidate. Gingrey has been redistricted around metro-Atlanta multiple times so he has a broad base of urban voters who know him and will support him. I mentioned Perdue's name and money. Kingston has lots of money as well. Handel is relying on support from her 2010 gubernatorial run.

Okay, I was right:

2,300 state of GA adults 03/16/14 through 03/18/14. Of the adults, 1,985 were registered to vote. Of the registered, 508 were determined by SurveyUSA to be likely to vote in the 05/20/14 Republican Primary

They polled Georgians who aren't even registered to vote? What the hell?
