John Zogby presents Mexican Presidential campaign poll results at the Fiesta.
Pollster Zogby Makes News at Frozen Food Fiesta
In 2005, President Vicente Fox of Mexico headlined the Frozen Food Fiesta. In 2006, well-known pollster John Zogby maintained the event’s tradition of making news when he announced the results of his survey regarding the Mexican Presidential election. Zogby’s remarks were covered on television and radio, as well as in newspapers, in Mexico and the United States. The Council was specifically mentioned in several media reports.
Just this week, Zogby released an updated survey. To keep watch on Zogby’s survey results, visit www.zogby.com.
