Rasmussen disagrees

But neither poll mentions what Pat Buchanan said on Sunday, that 400,000 Floridians have already voted.

I was for Fred, but I think he made a mistake by dropping out a bit late. If it’s true that 400K people have voted, and he received say, 10% of them (which could be higher), then there are 40K Floridians lost their votes. Is there a mechanism in place to deal with such issue?

That’s right! I forgot about the absenteers in FL!! Don’t they vote more conservative, gvenerally?

Take it for what it is worth, this story mainly focuses on the Dems, but it has a blurb about Rudys early voting focus, and how his push to his voters to vote early. We will see tomorrow if it pays off.

Snip from article...
That development offers at least a glimmer of hope to Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York. He has made a calculated effort to get his supporters to vote early over the past month, hoping to bank a substantial number of votes before losses in other early states raised questions about his viability and his competitors arrived in the state, driving down his numbers in the polls.

As late as Thursday, Mr. Giuliani, at an appearance here, was still reminding supporters to vote for him early, as he has done at almost every stop here this month. “We are already voting, right?” he asked the crowd.
