I may have not paid attention to the 2022 FL-SEN Race between Marco Rubio and Val Demings as far as polling companies were concerned. However, I don't recall a single poll (including Emerson) that showed Val Demings 1% point behind Rubio.
Could be several factors that Emerson is taking into account:
1) Mucarsell-Powell is in fact running a credible Senate race.
2) There is strong enthusiasm among the Democratic Party base + any crossover appeal (primarily Independents).
I do know FL Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried and the Democratic Party statewide has made progressive improvements throughout the state this year. That said, this is certainly no reason at all to be complacent.
Hill/Emerson College poll. Emerson is not that reliable. But let's hope they're onto something.
