All Tied Up in Florida

A new Public Policy Polling survey in Florida finds Gov. Rick Scott’s (R) early negative advertising blitz against Charlie Crist (D) has paid off in a big way.

Key findings: “What was a 12 point lead for Crist over Scott last fall at 50% to 38% is now a tie race at 42% each, and the biggest thing that’s changed over the last 8 months is how Floridians feel about Crist.”

Update: A new SurveyUSA poll finds Crist leading by two points, 44% to 42%.
