I like this poll! But the 8 percent for Wyllie--is that realistic?
Not a chance. In 2010 all combined 3rd parties got 3.41% of the vote, with about 48% going to both major candidates. I expect pretty much the same thing to happen this time; Scott's voters aren't going to go 3rd party this election when his approval rating now is much better than it was last time around. Crist's approvals are way lower than Sink's were, but I doubt many of her voters will be going 3rd party either.
Wyllie will end up with 3% of the vote or so and neither major party candidate will be below 46%. You can count on it.
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel that Scott is headed for Bob McDonald-like court issues?
Seems unlikely; Scott doesn't need political patronage for wealth. If he has any problems it will come from ignorance of the law instead of actively breaching it.
