PPP's numbers have been very consistent over the past 3 days.

Romney's up 45-32 with those who've voted. Cubans still going big for Gingrich.

[Oakvale]

Oh well, at least it might not be a blowout. For those of us who are supporting Newt Gingrich partially for ironic reasons, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die.

[Lief 🗽]

Florida is full of liberals and RINOs. Onwards to the true conservative states!

[J. J.]

It might be tightening a bit.  Gingrich's big momentum coming off of SC has evaporated.

I thought most Cubans were voting for Romney?

PPP's always had Newt winning among them. Romney wins other Hispanics though.

That will be a long wait - at least ones that are not LDS havens.

Don't give up hope, Oakvale, we haven't even lost this battle yet. Gingrich still could make this close! If he's only 8 behind in this poll and he might outperform polls, he could still come within 3 or 4 % of Romney, which would keep his momentum going. (Especially combined with a good speech tonight. 'Mr Romney, you can't buy an election'.)

     Many other polls have a wider spread than this, in fact. Gingrich could probably lose by 8% and stilll spin it as an upset.

Actually, there also is an IA poll that has a 5 point gap. So, hope continues to live!

[Mr. Morden]

Cubans still going big for Gingrich.

Am I wrong, or was this part pretty far off?

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Miami-Dade went 60% for Romney, so he won something there overwhelmingly.

Yeah, I looked at the precinct results and Romney definitely cleaned up with Cubans.

[Eraserhead]

Overestimated Paul and (significantly) underestimated Romney. Basically nailed Gingrich and Santorum though.

Not their best work but acceptable I suppose.
