Sorry about the error in the headline! Obviously, Rubio is in the lead!

RUBIO leads, not Crist, in the FL Senate race.

Why does your title have Crist leading, when the poll shows Rubio way ahead?

Title is misleading. It looks like Rubio is winning.

I've asked for an edit.

Not a good poll for Rick Scott. I wonder if the poll was more heavily weighted toward SE Florida where Rubio is relatively strong and Scott relatively weak.

You really scared me with that headline. Thank God it’s not true. But I’m sure this post will get lots of hits because of the error.

BTW, what happened in the Florida Gov race? Holding the Gov seat is important for Presidential elections

Don’t do that. You scared me. I knew Rubio was in the lead. Have the Admin change the title.

Tsk, tsk — this is what happens when you change the article title. ;-)

Also, your link only goes to the FoxNews homepage. I think you want to link to this article:

“California: Sen. Barbara Boxer (D) edges Carly Fiorina (D) in the U.S. Senate race, 46% to 44%. “

Looks like you got the party affiliations correct, even if it’s unintentional. I’d consider both of them D’s.

Boxer can only win thru election fraud, just like Reid in Nevada. Where are the homeless and illegals, small towns stuffing the ballot boxes.
I seen it happen and listened to the bragging of Reids elections, they get paid well and then told to get out of town.

I think the poll suggest the voters don’t like Scott.
We may not win this one. Lots of posts on FR about Scott.

Yep, Fiorina is miles away better than Boxer, but make no mistake, Fiorina is a total RINO and in some ways she could be considered more dangerous. Fiorina would likely form a voting block with Olympia Snow and Susan Collins.

Sink is a good candidate, I think shear enthusiasm and GOTV for Rubio,LTC West,etc will pull Scott over the line.
