Are there any candidates you would definitely *not* support?
Cruz 26%
Trump 21%
Rubio 17%
Carson 13%
Kasich 11%
Those are potentially the most important numbers in this poll. TRUMP not in first and only four points ahead of Rubio on this question.
I would never vote for Gang-of-Eight Rubio. I think a lot of Republicans share that sentiment no matter how slick he tries to be on immigration. The GOPe has always miscalculated how their base feels on immigration.
With that said, nothing shocks me here. Trump has a second home in Florida and is well known there. Obviously, there are also a ton of NY transplants in South Florida. He should play well in the state.
