Republican Marco Rubio now enjoys a 20-point advantage over Independent candidate Charlie Crist in the U.S. Senate race in Florida, with Democratic Congressman Kendrick Meek still running third.
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the Sunshine State finds Rubio picking up 50% of the vote, while Crist, Florida's current GOP governor, receives 30% support. Meek picks up 16% support, his worst showing since early July. One percent (1%) prefers some other candidate, and another three percent (3%) are still undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
This race remains Solid Republican in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Senate Balance of Power rankings. Earlier last week, Rubio held a 43% to 32% lead over Crist, with Meek earning 20% support.

I appreciate you listing of CRISP!
Although you can't see it, my lower lip is quivering right now.
Crisp! ha ha, he’s toast!
Crisp. That’s freakin funny!!
One former Wake Forest player won’t be in the Senate (One will return).
According to RCP, there is a recent Sunshine State News Poll that also states Rubio is up +20. So much for the polls that show only a +7 lead. Go Rubio!
What was Charlie’s sport?
I have heard he plays both ways.......
LMAO!
Charlie Crist: the worst of the worst. THE definition of a narcissistic politcian willing to do and/or say anything, vote for anything, pander to anyone, anywhere....it’s ALL about Charlie.
He played QB.
“Meek picks up 16% support, his worst showing since early July.”
Maybe because he is both stupid and a bad politician.
My evidence is from his website:
1. He supports cap and trade,
2. He openly supports cap and trade by the name “cap and trade,” not hiding it under a “green” disguise like the others do,
3. He thinks cap and trade has something to do with the importation of petroleum to America.
Good riddance.
If there’s any justice in the world.....Charlie and any Republican who supported his candidacy after he bolted the party should be blackballed from Florida politics forever. The word should be put out in Tallahassee. No one that worked for Crist should ever work in that town again. They’ve burned bridges on both sides of the aisle now.
Seems a natural for tight-end, wide-receiver...
Wow
doesn’t look the type for sure
Would have hated to be the center......
I wonder how Crisp would have done if he made it clear he was still a Republican (albeit a RINO) and would caucus as such. Murkowski has done this and has stayed in the hunt. Crisp, on the other hand, has made it more or less clear to anyone paying attention that he would call himself ‘independent’ but caucus with the Democrats.
