According to a YouGov poll conducted on Thursday for Sky News, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss is still well ahead of Rishi Sunak in the contest to become the next prime minister of Great Britain.
Following Boris Johnson’s announcement that he will resign as party leader due to a slew of scandals, the ruling Conservative Party is electing a new party leader through a postal ballot. On September 5th, the winner will be declared.
According to the report, Truss, who has often come out on top in polls of Conservative Party members, leads Sunak by 32 percentage points among those who plan to cast a ballot. Sunak had 34%, whereas Truss had 66%.
Only 13% of those surveyed stated they had not yet made up their minds about how they would vote or would not vote at all.
