Florida: Romney 51%, Obama 46%
Rasmussen ^

Posted on 10/19/2012 9:16:57 AM PDT by Arthurio

Mitt Romney has taken his biggest lead of the year in Florida and now outpaces President Obama by five points in the key swing state following Tuesday night's debate.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Florida Voters finds Romney with 51% support to Obama’s 46%. One percent (1%) prefers some other candidate, and two percent (2%) remain undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Florida now moves from a Toss-Up to Leans Romney in the Rasmussen Reports Electoral College Projections.

I guess it depends on where you’re talking about (Illinois or Florida), but I figure the “margin of fraud” to be around 3%.

The guy from Suffolk polling was 2 weeks ahead of this information. I am looking forward to his next polls from other states. North Carolina, Florida and Virginia are going to Romney.

A lot depends on whether the state has a major city, accounting for a large percentage of the state population, which is totally dominated by a Dem machine (eg, Illinois/Chicago, PA/Philly, NY/NYC).

Forget Dade, Broward and Palm beach counties. (S FL)

66% d-RAT territory. Hopefully the rest of the state compensates for that.
