A poll released yesterday shows Obama leading Governor Romney by 1 in Florida:
Obama barely ahead in Florida
Raleigh, N.C.-- President Obamas lead in the sunshine state has shrunk from 4 points over challenger Mitt Romney to 1 point, 48% to 47%, since PPPs last survey in the state, conducted in June. Romney has benefited from a significant spike in his favorability rating, from -14 to -3, while Obamas approval rating has turned upside down, reversing from a +3 rating in June to -3. This was PPPs first survey of the state conducted among likely voters.
Independent voters are responsible for much of the change in these numbers, as many have shifted sides in the last month and a half. While unaffiliated voters favored Obama by 9 points in June, they now favor Romney by 7, at 47% to 40%. This group has softened on Romney, who has experienced some pretty dismal favorability numbers this cycle, and now 42% have a favorable view of Romney compared to 48% who see him unfavorably.
