HUFFPOLLSTER: Florida Polls Show Small Gain For Charlie Crist
Florida polling shows a small shift toward the Democrat. Most midterm voters have already made up their minds. And Dana Milbank is more certain than he should be about the problems with election forecasts. This is HuffPollster for Friday, October 10, 2014.
FLORIDA GOVERNOR: CRIST GAINS - Mark Caputo: "A University of North Florida poll of statewide likely voters shows Charlie Crist leading Gov. Rick Scott 43-38 percent -- marking the fourth survey this week that has the Democrat pulling slightly ahead. Crist's advantage (as with polls from 0ptimus, Public Policy Polling and SurveyUSA) is within the poll's error margin. So the race could be called a tie. But Crist's lead is almost outside that margin. And, as stated before: it ain't the topline, it's the trend. The trend is with Crist right now." The HuffPost Pollster tracking model, based on all public polls, shows a similar result. It shows a Scott advantage of just over two percentage points during the summer narrowing to dead even in recent weeks.
