July 11th, 2008 | Category: Florida Politics Blog

A Zogby poll released today shows John McCain edging out Barack Obama 43-39 in Florida.

"that is the rare state where Obama’s support among Democrats is not greater than McCain’s support among Republicans (both at 77%). Obama loses badly to McCain with voters by 65, 59%-26%. They prepare up nearly one-quarter of Florida’s voters. McCain wins white voters, 52%-29%.

Obama takes Hispanics by 11%. Obama’s strength is in the southern part of the state, while McCain does better in the north and in the I4 corridor."

The poll was taken June 11-30, included 3,731 humans and had a MOE +/- 1.6 percentage points. See the poll here.
