A poll of 570 likely Democratic voters conducted by Emerson College and local PIX11 News found 21% had selected Garcia as their top choice. Lobbying firm Fontas Advisors and Core Decision Analytics showed Adams leading with 18%.

Garcia had the most momentum of any of the top eight candidates in the Emerson poll, up from 5% in a March 6 poll and 8% in a poll on May 15.
