Factor in the fraud vote, and it will be Crist in a walk.

If he can’t beat Crist he must be a pretty crummy candidate.

Another poll had Scott up 45-43 yesterday. The media who endorsed Crist are all running this poll as a headline, though.

It’s all those damn Snow Birds that vote in their home state in the Northeast who also vote in Floridia.

If they vote for this loser, then Floridians deserve what they get.

Scott wins...by about 4 points...there is NO enthusiasm for Crist anywhere in Tampa ( Hillsborough)..you never see a Crist yard sign or bumper sticker...and that’s IMHO, a big indicator of lack of support. Dems will stay home..

What poll was that? I heard there was one, but didn’t know the firm that conducted it.

Florida elections are won and lost along the I-4 corridor. Win there, and you’ve won the state. It is the only area that needs to be polled.

“The media who endorsed Crist are all running this poll as a headline, though.”

Not really. These papers all endorsed Scott, and are running variations of “Crist is winning with independents” headlines:

You are right, it’s the snowbirds. Scott was consistently ahead in the polls until they showed up .

It’s got to be. I just can’t put my finger on why anyone would vote for that slug.

It’s amazing they’d even consider that tool in Florida again but I guess it’s gone blue.

I see Crist bumper stickers all the time in NE FL. You must not be looking too hard if you can’t see them in Tampa.

Scott won by 1% in the 2010 TEA year. Seems unlikely he would increase that to 4% this year. It will be close and can go either way.

It’s not the snowbirds. It’s the transplants. Massive increase in low income, low info voters to FL. They are Dems.
