This new poll taken after the Martha’s Vineyard deal shows Desantis TRAILING Crist by 6 points.

Desantis/Crist Poll

It would be easy to dismiss this except for two facts. The pollster Greg Fink is conservative leaning. Secondly,
quote:

were different from others, he pointed to the firm's track record—accurate calls on President Donald Trump's margin of victory in the state during the 2020 presidential election and Crist's landslide win over Nikki Fried in the Democratic primary for which others projected a Fried victory—as a sign that the poll should not be so easily dismissed. "They thought we were crazy," Fink said. "Everyone thought we were stupid as hell. And we ended up being right."

I’m with you and don’t think he will, but this poll gives me pause. This guy has good previous results in Florida and is conservative leaning. Maybe he has the secret sauce to poll Florida. Local pollsters often can.

If this guy is conservative leaning and has a good track record of polling the state, why would we put his thumb on the scale? What’s the angle here, and what does he get out of making his business look bad.

So Florida went Trump in 16 and 20 and now is going Blue. I don’t believe it.

Just like I said above, this guy is supposedly conservative leaning and has had good polls in FL that were considered “out there”. Why would he be skewing the poll. What does he get out of it?

Oh no. Not even a little. He’s one of the few conservatives who is standing up to the liberal machine. He’s going to win in a landslide.

DeSantis could send illegals to the fricking moon and would gain support. Stop listening to lizard people.

He is not conservative leaning and number two the only people who care about Martha’s Vineyard are Democrats so unless the pollster is suggesting 20-25% of Florida Democrats were going to vote for Desantis or 10% of the electorate cares more about Martha’s Vineyard than everything else in the country which is idiotic at best.

I still have to believe it will be, but if this verifies, the Martha’s Vineyard trip would go down as one of the biggest own goals in political history.

There is something wrong with that poll.

It is concerning, but doubtful that that flight, no matter how bad the coverage is in Florida, is that bad.

If I was in Florida, I might wonder why we spent a bunch of money to fly people in Texas to Martha's vineyard.

Perhaps the coverage in Florida is all about DeSantis being fiscally stupid.

That really cracks me up. Democrats saying this.

But the media is the only reason Trump lost. It amazes me how badly the media treats Republicans, how well they treat democrats, and grew people notice.

A pandemic combined with USPS and coyotes using unverifiable mail in ballots helped as well. Anyone who believes Biden got 81 million legitimate votes is mentally ill.
