Florida Political Poll: Shows Governor Rick Scott ahead of Former Governor Charlie Crist; Latest Telephone Survey By Gravis Marketing shows Scott Ahead by 1 Point
(PRWEB) May 03, 2014 -- Gravis Marketing and Human Events conducted a random telephone survey of 907 registered voters in Florida by automated calls to landlines between 4/23/14 and 4/25/14 regarding support for the proposed Constitutional Amendment legalizing medical marijuana on the set for the November 2014 ballot and the upcoming Gubernatorial and Attorney General Elections. The results have a margin of error of ±3.
Results indicate a modest, but growing majority of support for the medical marijuana amendment in the latest political poll. In the Governor’s race, Charlie Crist and Rick Scott remains relatively close with Scott overtaking Crist’s previously held 4-point advantage over the last three months. In addition, the race for the Attorney General’s seat will likely be a three-way contest with Bondi holding a cushion over Thurston and Sheldon with a significant amount of unsure voters who could potentially tighten up the race.
