Rick Scott and Charlie Crist Deadlocked in PPP Poll
In the final hours of the Florida gubernatorial race, a new poll shows its neck and neck between Gov. Rick Scott and former Gov. Charlie Crist -- and the Libertarian candidate could be holding back the Democrat.
A poll from Public Policy Polling (PPP), a firm with connections to Democrats, released on Sunday, shows Scott and Crist taking 44 percent apiece while Libertarian Adrian Wyllie gets 6 percent and 6 percent are undecided. When Wyllie is taken out of the mix, Crist inches ahead 47 percent to 46 percent.
The poll shows both major-party candidates are upside down. Scott is disapproved by 48 percent of those surveyed while 41 percent approve of his work as governor. Crist is seen as unfavorable by 47 percent while 40 percent see him as favorable.
The poll of 1,198 likely voters was taken Nov. 1-2 and had a margin of error of +/- 2.8 percent.
