Rasmussen Reports

Added: 6/26/08

Rasmussen Reports
Date: 6/26
Florida
Added: 7/2/08

The results of the poll showed that 34% of those polled approved of President Bush’s overall job performance; with 57% disapproving; and 9% undecided. When asked to rate the President’s handling of the economy, 22% approved; 67% disapproved; and 11% were undecided. On the issue of Iraq, the poll found 36% approved of the President’s handling; with 58% disapproving; and 6% undecided. When asked on the President’s handling of the war on terrorism, the poll found that 55% approved, 40% disapproved, and 5% were undecided.

“The economy has replaced the war in Iraq as the number one issue for Floridians,” said David E. Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, LLC. “Voters blame the President for the precarious state of the economy which is reflected in his low poll numbers. The one bright spot for the President is that support for his handling of the war in Iraq has increased.”

When Republicans were asked if they viewed President Bush as a conservative in the mode of Ronald Reagan, 10% said yes; 69% said no; and 21% were undecided. Q1 The candidates for President are Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama. If the election was today, who would you vote for? If John McCain, press 1. If Barack Obama, press 2. If you’re undecided, press 3.

Party unification is the key to Obama’s improved standing in the state. At that time he was getting the support of only 60% of self identified Democrats. In this survey he’s polling at 74% with them, and also leading 45-33 among independent voters.

PPP surveys over the last two weeks have shown Obama with leads in the swing states of Ohio, Virginia, Michigan, and now Florida.

“It’s a long way until November, but Barack Obama would be looking at an Electoral College landslide if the election was today,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. “Our polls in Florida and Michigan over the last two weeks have also served as confirmation that controversy over the seating of the two states’ delegations at the convention is not causing the Democratic Party any long term issues.” McCain is now viewed favorably by 57% of Florida voters, a figure that has not changed since the previous survey. Obama is viewed favorably by 44%, reflecting a seven point decline in eight days. Even more dramatic is the fact that 40% of Florida voters have a Very Unfavorable opinion of Obama in the June 26 survey. That’s up from 29% eight days earlier before the debate over offshore drilling escalated.

Eighteen percent (18%) of Florida voters now have a Very Unfavorable opinion of McCain, down from 21% in the previous survey.

McCain leads by seventeen points among men but trails by two among women. Obama has a huge lead among voters under 30 while McCain leads among those 30 and older. McCain is supported by 85% of Republicans while Obama earns the vote from 71% of Democrats. Unaffiliated voters are fairly evenly divided.

Nearly two weeks ago, McCain startled the political world by calling for offshore oil drilling, a position that was assumed to be unpopular in the key state of Florida. Since that time, both McCain and Obama have actively addressed the issue. The Democrat has made it clear that he opposes offshore drilling and doesn’t believe it will bring down the price of gas and oil.

Fifty-nine percent (59%) of Florida voters favor offshore drilling while 32% are opposed. Eighty-three percent (83%) of Republicans favor offshore drilling and unaffiliated voters favor it by a 54% to 34% margin. Democrats are more evenly divided—38% favor drilling while 50% are opposed. Nationally, support for drilling is also at 59%. Over the past couple of weeks, Obama has persuaded some Democrats to oppose the concept but had no measurable impact on Republicans and unaffiliated voters.

Fifty-five percent (55%) of Florida voters say it’s likely that offshore drilling will reduce the price of gas and oil while 39% disagree.

One of the biggest perturbations of Random Digit Dialing polling (RDD) is the accidental calling of business phone numbers. So we track these numbers and report to you the prefixes within each area code most likely to be reserved for business use.
