Florida-based Ron Sachs Communicationsis out with a poll of the state’s U.S. Senate and gubernatorial races, showing Gov. Charlie Crist (R-Fla.) is the early leader for the open Senate seat and Republican Attorney General Bill McCollum narrowly ahead in the race to replace Crist.
Crist leads former state House Speaker Marco Rubio (R) by 35 points, 53-18. No Democrat comes close to Crist in a general election. But according to the poll, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fla.) is viewed much more favorably than Crist among Republicans, with 81 percent liking Bush to only 50 percent with a favorable opinion of Crist. That’s the only sign so far of some Crist softness among Republicans — and Rubio’s only chance at victory.–
