A new poll in Seattle's mayoral race conducted this weekend on behalf of KING-5 News, shows Mayor Mike McGinn retaining a slight lead in his hotly contested fight to retain his office.

Mike McGinn22 percent
Peter Steinbrueck17 percent
Ed Murray15 percent
Bruce Harrell12 percent
Kate Martin4 percent
Charlie Staadecker4 percent
Mary Martin3 percent
Undecided23 percent

The survey of 522 registered voters was conducted after Seattle City Council member Tim Burgess dropped out of the race.

The good news for McGinn is that despite the many reporters of his political death, he continues to lead the field. A previous KING5/SurveyUSA poll from March also showed McGinn with a small lead over declared challengers. The bad news for McGinn is that after nearly four years in office, he still trails "Undecided."

Objectively, 22 percent is a pretty shitty number for an incumbent. Then again, the closer we get to the primary, McGinn's numbers don't look all that bad as long he remains in the top two.
