M-D FL-GOV: Still McCollum By 6

Mason-Dixon Florida Poll conducted 6/24-6/26 of 625 RVs, pdf here:

Attorney General Bill McCollum (R) 41%
State CFO Alex Sink (D) 35%

Mason-Dixon also polled the primaries on both sides, both McCollum and Sink would clobber their token opposition. The General Election numbers are hardly different from the previous iteration of this poll which showed McCollum up 40%-34%. Part of McCollum's early edge could be attributable to his higher name ID-61% recognize Sink's name compared to 87% who know who McCollum is. But there also parts of the crosstabs that would have me worried if I were in Sink's camp. She allows 16% of Democrats to defect to McCollum, and she trails by 14 points among Independents. Also notice that while 25% of Republicans are undecided, just 18% of Democrats have yet to make up their mind.

SLIGHT ADVANTAGE FOR McCOLLUM.
