Poll: Obama, Dems Poised to Lose Grayson House Seat

Submitted by Anonymous on September 28, 2010 - 9:39pm

A new poll by Sunshine State News shows Republican Daniel Webster leading Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson by 7 points in Central Florida's 8th Congressional District.

Webster, a former state senator, tops the freshman congressman 43-36 in the survey conducted this week.

TEA Party candidate Peg Dunmire drew 6 percent and George Metcalfe, running with no party affiliation, garnered 3 percent. Nine percent remained undecided.

Grayson appears to have an uphill battle as the poll showed the congressman with a 51 percent unfavorable rating with the poll's 559 respondents.

Sunshine State News Polls conducted by Voter Survey Service called Rick Scott's narrow primary victory over Bill McCollum in the GOP gubernatorial primary. We were the first to project Republican Marco Rubio's double-digit lead in this fall's U.S. Senate race.

The congressional survey was conducted Sept. 25-27 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.
