Charlie Crist Out Front of Rick Scott Big in Q-Poll
Sunshine State News ^ | 4/30/14 | Kevin Darby

Posted on 04/30/2014 4:50:17 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Unlike other polls which show a narrowing race, Quinnipiac University released a poll of registered voters Wednesday morning that finds former Gov. Charlie Crist, the leading Democratic gubernatorial candidate, with a solid lead over Republican Gov. Rick Scott....

The Q-poll relies, it should be pointed out, on a sample of 31 percent Democrats and 25 percent Republicans, an unusually low percentage of GOP voters in an off-year election.....

"Florida voters think former Gov. Crist is more compassionate, more honest and trustworthy and was a better governor than Gov. Scott,” Brown said. “The difference may be simple: voters like Crist, whose strength always has been his ability to connect. Voters sometimes elect candidates they don't like personally, but not that often."

A slim majority -- 52 percent -- say Crist’s jump from the Republicans to the Democrats is a positive while 40 percent think it’s a negative.

This may be an outlier, but the Republicans need to turn negative on the weasel Crist.

Yes, he needs to be shunned and embarrassed. He’s a piece of excrement with no underlying principles whatsoever, and it’s easy to prove. The Scott campaign is doing a nice job showing the economic success under Scott.

That said, this poll is garbage. It’s clearly rigged with way too many Dems and too few GOP voters.

Scotts campaign has produced some pretty good commercials in the Jacksonville market.

Crist looks a bit like Florida’s version of Gov. Jerry Brown.

The poll may be cr@p, but the thought of Crist in any political position is positively nauseating. If he somehow gets elected in FL .... too sickening to contemplate.

On Scott’s watch, that state’s economy has turned around in a huge way... unemployment has been cut nearly in half since Crist was governor.

Ah well... no one can accuse the American voter of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

Why does any believe a Q poll.

So Q phonies are back pushing another phony poll.

Amazing how these phony Dem front group getting away with pushing the same lies over and over and nobody calls them out!.

The current occupier of the white House is there by popular demand of “We” the voter. The second term might have been a little shady, but none the less, there is and there he stays. Christ will have at his disposal every weapon in the Democrat vote stealing arsenal. I believe that the Democrats used those weapons to get both a Democrat Supervisor of Elections and a Democrat Property appraiser in Hillsborough County. I know that the Republican Party prefers a Democrat winning to a Conservative Republican winning. Their motto is, “Don’t let the Conservative win”.

Q runs another phony poll with Sink pulling ahead timed just before the election day in 2010.

The way to take FL off the table is to move presidential electoral award based on one county one vote.

This means all 67 counties will have an equal voice. A tiny northern fl county will have the same vote as a banana republic Miami-dade county.

It will end flyover counties and encourage democrats to spend money elsewhere.
