A CBS News poll conducted between June 19 and June 22 provides the latest piece of good news for Republicans hoping to beat back a predicted "blue wave." Among likely voters, Trump has an approval rating of 53 percent in the poll while 48 percent disapprove of the president's job performance.
The online survey of 1,002 registered voted - conducted for CBS News by YouGov - comes on the heels of a Politico poll released last week that had Trump at 48 percent approval in Florida and 49 percent disapproval. Factoring in the margin of error in both polls, Trump basically is even when it comes to those who approve and disapprove of his performance, a big improvement from just a few months ago. A Quinnipiac University Poll from February had Trump at 42 percent approval in Florida and 54 percent disapproval.
Democrats are energized to push back against Trump and the GOP agenda right now and have been getting out to vote.
...
And being associated with Trump hasn't hurt candidates such as Gov. Rick Scott. The CBS poll had Scott, a Republican who strongly backed Trump in 2016, leading by five percentage points among likely voters in his bid to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson. Scott had the support of 46 percent of likely voters, compared to 41 percent for Nelson. The governor's approval rating in the poll is 62 percent among likely voters.

If CBS admits to 50%, you know it’s much higher.
PPD has Nelson down by 2-3, which is excellent. PPD is right on, so you combine that with yesterday’s news that Rs are more highly motivated now to vote than Ds . . . . they are in big big trouble.
Probably like 52.5% to 47.5%, both rounding up
cott will easily defeat Democrat, Bill Nelson and Ron DeSantis will easily be elected Governor. Florida will become a full blown Trump Red State this coming November.
I wish but beating Putnam is a long shot. DeSantis is not seasoned enough to beat the GOPe. Will be good exposure for him for a run down the road.
Scott vs Nelson is the big prize. He will be a great asset for MAGA message and will always vote with Trump.
There’s a TV ad playing here in the Tampa Bay area that is very effective at portraying Bill Nelson as having overstayed his time in Washington. The ad shows Nelson’s face from his first election in 1978 until today, mentions that the Pinto was popular in 1978, and that gasoline was $.60/gallon ... all the visuals conflate Nelson with being outdated. I think Nelson is toast ... this ad doesn’t even have to dwell on his politics. The man has simply been in office too long, and remember that Florida term limits its state officials.
I dont like Scott much but hes clearly better than Nelson. I think Scott wins.
That is hilarious !!! Freepin’ photo bomb !!!
I am not crazy about Scott either...but he gets my vote and twelve of my family’s votes. Why? A Drunken monkey has more capability then Democrat, low life, failure, Bill Nelson.
I will do everything I can to work to totally destroy the entire Democrat Party here in Florida and throughout the country. But....I am so upset by the Parkland High School murder/slaughter that was openly aided and abetted by Debbie Wasserman Schultz, her BFF, Broward County Sheriff, Scott Israel, The Broward School Board authorities (The Democrat Obama Gang) and the failed FBI.
How the Broward County, parents of these slaughtered innocents can go to bed at night with these Democrats that laid the groundwork for the murder of their precious children is far beyond my comprehension to understand. Go figure!!!
Yes, Murderer, Nicolas Cruz had the gun and pulled the trigger...but, he had tons of support from Obama, The Broward School Board, Sheriff, Scott Israel & the FBI!!! The Democrat Party of Broward county needs to be forever destroyed politically. I see those helpess children terrified and no one coming to help them from this manic killer..it breaks my heart & soul. The entire Democrat Party needs to be totally politically destroyed at the ballot box this November, IMHO. Case closed!!!
Is that a new term for "Independent" Be careful, the left will find a way to use that term to demonize closet trumpers or perhaps any democrat who doesn't toe the hard left line.
All congressional districts are local. That’s why we shouldn’t buy into pollsters’ propaganda whether they call us up or down. If they say we’re up, it’s because they want us to get complacent and not vote. If they say we’re down it’s because they want to discourage us and lead us not to vote. Either way they’re trying to get us not to vote

Nice - thanks for the ping.
Just a play on the schizophrenia of transgender.
HEAR FLIPPING HEAR.
Wow, 4 out of 6 New England states have Republican Governors.
That’s gotta be a record!
And the Enemedia will NOT tell you that! So, keep it under your hat. ;)
...and the local Miami media keeps spewing ONE side of the immigration story.
I was in a waiting area for several hours where local “news” was on...and AMAZINGLY the local Miami media couldn’t find ANYONE IN THE COMMUNITY who thought the SCOTUS (and thus the President) were CORRECT about the travel ban. ONLY PEOPLE WHO HATE DONALD TRUMP were interviewed.
Makes me wonder how the hell Trump won Florida. (I am kidding of course. The papers/news radio/local news tv all have TDS.)
