Florida: Clinton 55, Sanders 18, Biden 17, O'Malley 2 New PPP poll (Hillary Group)


Hanging in there.

But --Another silly poll with Biden included.


PublicPolicyPolling ‏@ppppolls 18m18 minutes ago

Compared to March in FL: Clinton -3, Biden +3, Sanders +15. 37 pt lead still shows strength for her in South though: http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2015/09/florida-down-on-bush-rubio-campaigns.html


Democratic side in Florida: Clinton 55, Sanders 18, Biden 17, O'Malley 2, Chafee/Webb 1: http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2015/09/florida-down-on-bush-rubio-campaigns.html

More evidence Biden would mostly hurt Clinton- in FL 54% of his voters say Clinton would be 2nd choice, 14% Sanders:

See bold area--that Biden effect again!

http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2015/09/florida-down-on-bush-rubio-campaigns.html

Clinton's hold on the Democratic electorate in Florida is pretty consistent across demographic lines. She's at 75% with Hispanics, 64% with 'somewhat liberal' voters, 58% with women, 57% with younger voters, 56% with 'very liberal' voters, 54% with seniors, 52% with whites, 52% with men, and 50% with moderates. The one group she's below 50% with has actually been one of her strongest in most states- African Americans with whom she gets just 48% due to a 34% showing for Biden.

The general election numbers in Florida are generally good for the GOP. The strongest Republican in the state is Carson, who leads Clinton 49/40 and Sanders 48/33. Carson easily has the best net favorability rating with the overall electorate- +20 at 45/25. The second strongest polling Republican is actually Trump who leads her by 6 at 48/42 and who has a similar 47/41 lead over Sanders. Biden polls a tick closer to Trump, trailing by 4 at 47/43. Also leading Clinton by decent sized margins are Fiorina (46/41) and Rubio (48/43). Fiorina (37/31) and Rubio (44/43) join Carson in having positive favorabilities with the full voter pool.

The other general election match ups with Clinton are close. She trails Jeb Bush 45/42, with Biden and Sanders down by similar margins as well. Bush's not polling as well against the Democrats as some of the other Republican candidates is a reflection of his overall unpopularity in the state- only 36% of voters see him positively to 52% who have a negative opinion. Clinton is down 44/41 to Kasich and 45/43 to Walker. The two Republicans who trail Clinton in Florida are Cruz and Huckabee, both at 45/43.

If he declares I think his numbers will fall as the media shifts their attention.

Great news in Florida. I guess the Sunshine State isn't feeling the Bern either?

The Carson numbers to me reflect that people like his soft tones but don't have a clue he is a homophobic, climate change denier who would use armed drones on the US/Mexico border. To know him is not to love him.

superdelegates and the sum of the delegates needs to be a major in order for the nominee to be declared. It will not be the first states who holds a primary. It is looking really good for Hillary, the primaries are four months away and the debates have not started, I expect soon the issues Hillary holds near and dear will be on the front and not being denied.
