PPP Poll: Obama Slightly Ahead in Florida
A new Public Policy Polling survey in Florida finds Sen. Barack Obama narrowly leading Sen. John McCain, 46% to 44%, on the basis of greater support among Hispanics.
Four years ago, President Bush won Hispanic voters in the state, 56% to 44%, but this survey shows Obama leading among them, 51% to 37%.
In addition, Obama is winning every age group except voters over 65, where McCain’s considerable 52% to 34% advantage allows him to keep the race competitive overall.
