PPP Hints Dems Support Crist in New Poll

Public Policy Polling (PPP) is offering a glimpse into a poll it will release Tuesday, which reveals a little bit of who is backing independent Gov. Charlie Crist in the U.S. Senate race.

One thing we asked on the poll was whether people thought Charlie Crist should caucus with the Democrats or Republicans if he was elected. Forty-three percent of respondents said he should go with the Democrats and 37 percent with the Republicans, noted PPP.

Perhaps more interesting was what those planning to vote for Crist had to say. Within that group, 55 percent said he should caucus with the Democrats to only 22 percent who expressed the opinion that he should join forces with the Republicans.
