69% chance that Bush wins Florida!

This state was decided by fewer than 1000 votes last time round. What has happened in the last three years to solidify Bush's position in Florida?

I don't know the reasons for the 69% chance of President Bush winning Florida.

I was just reporting the current trading price of that particular futures contract.

For one thing, the leadership of the Democratic Party dumped a lot of money and political firepower in Florida in 2002 in an attempt to topple Governor Jeb Bush, and he was re-elected in a landslide.

Jeb doing a good job, less chance or voter fraud next time around, military votes will be counted, incumbant factor, 9/11, ... just to name a few right off the top of my head. I'm sure there are more.

They elected Harris, for one. Jeb Bush got re-elected by 10 points, for another.

I think Florida is pretty safe.
