POLL: Rubio +2 Over Demings, DeSantis +3 Over Crist

Florida Politics reports:

A new poll shows Sen. Marco Rubio is under the critical 50% mark with Florida voters. The survey results, conducted for AARP Florida by two top pollsters, reveal the Republican Senator with a slim lead, winning 49% support among likely voters to Democrat Val Demings’ 47%.

That puts the race well within the poll’s 4.4% margin of error. Incumbents, as a rule, want to poll ahead of 50% as they seek re-election, but the results of the AARP poll signal the state remains as divided as ever.

Republican firm Fabrizio Ward and Democratic outfit Impact Research worked together on the comprehensive survey. Republican firm Fabrizio Ward and Democratic outfit Impact Research worked together on the comprehensive survey.
