It is the second consecutive day of upward movement for McCain after his campaign won the endorsement from Republican Florida Gov. Charlie Crist. McCain and Romney were tied in the tracking poll released two days ago. The doubts over whether the maverick Arizona senator could succeed in winning over GOP voters in a state where independent voters are not allowed to vote in the GOP primary election appear on the way to being assuaged.In what is shaping up as a battle for third place, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee are tied at 13% support each and battling for the advantage. Giuliani had sunk much time and campaign treasury into his Florida campaign, to little effect, the survey shows. Months ago, Giuliani led in Florida by a wide margin.
McCain and Romney are still running neck and neck among key Florida GOP voting groups. Men are evenly split between the two frontrunners, giving each 34% support.
Women, however, prefer McCain. He gets 35% backing from them, compared to Romney’s 28% support. Working- age voters favor McCain, but among the youngest voters – those age 18-29, favored Huckabee with 51%, while Giuliani won 20%.
