Yeah right....
This one shouldn’t be close at all.
Far left nut who wants 40% corporate tax rate. He’d drive businesses out of the state overnight.
How is this race even close?
If you poll Orlando and Miami, yeah. Get out of those areas, not even close.
It’s not. Quinnipiac called only people in cities who would say they liked Gillum. This same garbage poll has been linked here three times and it was bogus every time. Quit sharing and giving clicks to bogus polls and those who report them, please.
Looks like someone is tryin to toss a monkey wrench into the (s)election. And, I’ll bet somebody is looking for a “pole”.
It’s not, this is another poll designed to manipulate public opinion, not measure it.
Junk poll.
I think all of the polling throughout this race is going to reflect an extreme Wilder Effect.
Voters who won’t want to tell a pollster they aren’t voting for Gillum so they won’t be considered RAAAAAACIST.
But at the end of the day, they won’t vote for Gillum.
Not believing any of these polls.
The average of the Real Clear Politics pre-primary election polls had Graham up 7.2 points on Gillum. Gillum won by 2.9 points.
They missed it by more than 10 points!
A monkey could do better throwing darts at a board
They oversampled independents.
November will tell
Same polling mistake the idiot pollsters made in 2016 and are making today
Let em keep doing it. We’ll just get out the vote
I remember that in 2008... we called it the Bradley Effect back then. Many of us convinced ourselves that was what kept Obama ahead of McCain in polling.
“How is this race even close?”
Answer: The 19th Amendment; “Bill Clinton’s so cute!” And before you flame me, consider: If the actor Bradley Cooper were running against someone like Barry Goldwater, who would women vote for...?
This is true and this evening I am having dinner with Elvis also

You know, its hard to believe that Rick Scott is actually losing this. I think Scott has the same number of voters he has always had. He did a good job as governor. He is popular. It seems the polls in Florida are not close to accurate.
