In Florida, Harris on Path Towards Crushing Defeat
Today, 09:24 PM
In Florida's U.S. Senate race, a new Strategic Vision (R) poll shows Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) absolutely crushing Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL), 63% to 20% with 17% still undecided.

Key finding: When all respondents were asked if they have had a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Harris, 17% said favorable; 61% said unfavorable; and 22% were undecided.

Meanwhile, in the likely gubernatorial matchup, Charlie Crist (R) leads Rep. Jim Davis (D-FL), 49% to 41% with 10% undecided. Crist and Davis still need to win their primary elections, but polls show both comfortably ahead of their rivals."
