FL-Gov, FL-Sen: McCollum Leads Sink, Crist Still Dominating

Rasmussen (6/22, likely voters):

Alex Sink (D): 34
Bill McCollum (R): 42
Other: 7
Undecided: 18
(MoE: ±4.5%)
Despite being something of a conservative douchebag, state AG Bill McCollum has a very good approval rating of 53-26 in this poll, while Sink is sitting on a 50-32 rating. So far, McCollum has been enjoying an early lead in every poll of the race since his entry early last month. Quinnipiac recently had McCollum up by 38-34 over Sink (UPDATE: actually, make that 38-34 for Sink), while Strategic Vision gave McCollum a two-point lead, and Mase-Dix had Sink behind by 6 points in May.

Sink's been getting a bit dinged in the press in recent days over her personal use of a state-owned plane, but the matter was made murkier when McCollum was revealed to have made some questionable travel arrangements, too. I'm not convinced that this issue will gain a lot of traction.

And as for the Senate race...


Corrine Brown (D): 29
Charlie Crist (R): 50
Other: 8
Undecided: 13
Kendrick Meek (D): 28
Charlie Crist (R): 46
Other: 12
Undecided: 14
(MoE: ±4.5%)

The overall trend lines of this race remain pretty static for now.

winning if it's going to be a Republican tahn McCollum

if someone as horrible and right wing as McCollum has high favorables, it doesn't speak well for our side.

Florida probably still leans more center-right.

Obama won, but the Reupblican ticket was a disaster.

decent repukes in this country today.

In other words, Crist is not bat$hit crazy and eaten up with hate!

Repukes just raised taxes $2.2 Billion. Raised Hurrican insurance 20%.

Whenever they need money..just go to the tax payers pocket. Not a whimper from anyone... sad.

Golden Tan Charlie© gets ousted from the closet.... then maybe we could still win that senate seat. he's pretty good at avoiding the story, but surely there's someone out there with proof... wish they'd hold it til like Sept. 2010. ha
