It's Florida, after all, so what would you expect?
After a constant stream of Sunshine State visits by President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney, after many millions spent on TV ads, and even after a Republican National Convention in Tampa, Obama and Romney are essentially tied in America's ultimate battleground state.
A new Tampa Bay Times/Miami Herald/Bay News 9 poll finds 48 percent of likely Florida voters backing Obama, 47 percent supporting Romney, 1 percent with Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson and just 4 percent undecided.

But they dont vote their registration advantage. True turnout will be between R=D to D+2. Even 2008, their registration advantage swelled to D+7 but their turnout advantage was much less.
“Florida is going GOP.”
Jes’ like Virginia and Ohio, right?
Right ????
Actually very encoraging. You should read the article so you can understand.
You should check out rasmussen numbers this am. That should cheer u up or depress you if you’re a dem. Can’t tell with you
Libs can’t afford the gas to get to the polls.
Yes. But the point is that the pollster can claim some methodology for being a Democrat shill.
FReepers and bloggers have become adept at applying REASONABLE interpretations of slanted polling data.
where did you find that? could you please provide a link
True I hadn’t followed your point. They’re using simple registration numbers to determine turnout when that’s not accurate at all. Mason-dixon should know better
Of course Mason-Dixon knows better. It’s called an unreported campaign contribution.
We either hang together or we hang separately.
Why do u feel he will blow it?
Obama ads have blanketed us in central FL. The Clinton ad, huge job growth ad, etc. Romney has had a couple good ads, but not nearly as decisive in messaging, and not the same repetition. I think that has allowed Obama back into the race in FL.
Can you please provide the link for that? I can’t seem to find it. Thank you.
MON. NOVEMBER 5, 2012 — Your Favorite MSM Outlet:
“Our latest polls STILL indicate a dead beat.. -er, heat in the Presidential race, with Obama at 49.8% and Romney at 49.7%, and 0.5% of the electorate clueless. The MOE has dramatically risen to +/- 10%...”
But, But, But, ...What about the NBC/WSJ Poll?
“Obama, 47 percent supporting Romney, 1 percent with Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson and just 4 percent undecided.”
So Gary Johnson can do to Romney what Nader did to Gore in 2000.
And Obamacare survives.
well i’m in FL , north east FL and granted I live in one of ht emost repiublican counties I still get out to other areas like Jacksonville today, Clay county, Putnam, Flager and of ocurse St Johns county where i live and I have not seen more than 5 bama stickers in the last two weeks and yet I see at least 10 Mitt stickers or yard signs every day
The poll is asking in the 3 Dem cunties in the south then because there is no way Mitt is tied
They are RINOs. They are republicans. It seems to be in their DNA to screw it up.
It's gonna be pretty much a tie from now on.
