Rick Scott Bounces Back Against Charlie Crist in Poll

Gov. Rick Scott bounced back against former Gov. Charlie Crist, his leading Democratic challenger, in a Survey USA/WFLA poll released on Tuesday. Two weeks ago, Crist had established a lead over Scott but the governor roared back in the latest poll.

Scott leads 45 percent to 43 percent while 8 percent support other candidates and 4 percent remain undecided. In the last Survey USA/WFLA poll, Crist led 46 percent to 40 percent.

The poll of 576 likely voters was taken from July 31-Aug. 4 and had a margin of error of +/- 4.2 percent.
