[…] If the Birmingham News poll is to be believed along with what I have heard from campaigns, this is not true. I interpret this as an attempt to suppress the turnout for Patrick Cooper tomorrow as in, “If I support Cooper, and he is not going to make a run-off, maybe I won’t go vote.” […]

Does this mean that Patrick Cooper actually has 36% and Langford stands at 22%, or does Kincaid have 20%? Langford had been touting a poll since earlier this year saying that he had 45% of voters locked up. I would like to remind readers of Langford’s statements during the 1979 Birmingham Mayoral race as reported in the Birmingham Weekly >. I will make the predicition now. If Cooper makes the run-off, he will be Birmingham’s next Mayor.

Smitherman or Kincaid need to launch an attack on Langford or he is going to win.

It’s worth remembering this before we put too much faith into this poll:
