David "Dave" Porter[1] is a contestant from Survivor: Panama.
Dave managed to survive until the merge after North Island won the first two Immunity Challenges and joined his tribe in unanimously voting out Tayfun Kadioglu and Meeta Bose after losing the subsequent two. After the merge, the vote was deadlocked between old tribe lines, and after Helen Carney lost the tiebreaker quiz to Bridget Griffiths, the South Island alliance had a majority, leaving the old North Island members vulnerable. After Alastair Brogan and Drew Agger were voted out by the dominant alliance, Dave tried to convince Bridget and Susannah Moffatt to turn on John Dalzell and Jonny Gibb for being physically dominant. Ultimately, Dave was unanimously voted out, after the alliance stuck together once more.
