Beloved Fitzgerald tops 'Power Rankings'

A non-partisan market research survey recently told us something we already knew: Larry is the man. You know, Larry Fitzgerald, the Arizona Cardinals longtime wide receiver and all-around good guy.

“Fitz” topped the inaugural OH Predictive Insights “Power Rankings” survey last month, which attempts to show who may be best suited to run for public office. Other than name recognition and favorability metrics, OH includes a Demographic and Experience score based on age, birthplace, local ties and several other characteristics when determining the overall score.

Fitzgerald ticks all the boxes, as does former Cardinals great Kurt Warner and team owner Michael Bidwill, who round out the top 3 respectively. Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego and Cindy McCain, wife of former U.S. Senator John McCain, also make the top 10.

OH conducted the opt-in survey from Jan. 11-18 from a sample of 1,022 registered voters.
