<p>It showed&nbsp;Peter Bunting with an 18% point advantage over Dr Peter Phillips in response to the question, “In your opinion which of these two persons, Dr Peter Phillips or Peter Bunting do you feel would be best suited to lead the PNP at this time?” (Bunting-39%, Phillips-21%, Not Sure-25%, None-16%)</p>
