What the Results Show
The percentages clearly show a two-horse race at the top. Chibeka Matara and Abbie Zuena together account for over 76% of all votes, indicating they are the dominant figures in this survey.
Matara’s 43.4% gives him a substantial lead of more than 10 percentage points over his closest rival.
