Gov. Charlie Crist responded this morning to questions about the latest Rasmussen poll, showing him tied at 43 percent with Marco Rubio in the race for U.S. Senate.
From Rasmussen Reports: "Crist's support has fallen from 53% in August to 49% in October. Rasmussen Reports noted at the time, 'The fact that Crist has fallen below 50% in a primary against a lesser known opponent suggests potential vulnerability.'
"Rubio's name recognition has grown in recent months and he is now viewed Very Favorably by 34% of Likely Primary Voters. That's up from 18% in August. As his name recognition increased, Rubio's support in the polls has jumped from 31% in August to 43% today."
Rubio just sent out a campaign e-mail touting the latest results.
Asked about the poll this morning, Crist remained characteristically upbeat, saying that he didn't know whether the poll is accurate, "but I know only one poll matters - that's Election Day."
