Crist (I): 27%
Meek (D): 26%

This poll looks like complete junk but there you go.

It makes more sense for Meek to be tieing Crist then for Meek to losing ground though. Rubio at 46% is a little out there but not by much.

I think the reason for the wildly divergent polling levels for Meek and Crist have to do with turnout models that weight primarily based on party rather than race - black Democrats must be going at least 80% for Meek, while white and Hispanic Democrats are probably going at least 65% for Crist.

This poll claims that Rubio has a 60% unfavorable rating... and yet he's getting 46% of the vote? lolzzzzzz.

Bad poll. Bad.

Rubio will probably end up with over 50% of the vote anyway. Crist by the way, said he would have dropped out of the GOP primary, and run as an independent, even if the polls showed him 20 points ahead of Rubio in the primary. He said it in an interview on the air, for all to "savor."  How many folks are going to believe that?  His "wife?"  As I said, Crist has sociopathic tendencies. He has the capacity to lie without flinching, or I strongly suspect, it bothering his conscience - at all - and it doesn't matter much to  him whether it is reasonable to assume his lies will be believed, because he believes it in the most primitive parts of his brain from which our "id' emanates. That is how the sociopathic mind works.

I still wouldn't put Rubio as "safe" yet, due to the possibililty of one candidate's support evaporating and going to the other before Election Day, like NY-23 or Colorado Gov.
