50% is a good number for Obama, obviously more polls need to confirm this but Obama's organizing in Florida might be paying off.

Current voter registration is 40% democrat, 36% republican , 24% independent I believe, or somethingn close to that.

Uh, okay.

I used to consider PPP the gold standard of polling, but it is becoming increasingly clear that it has a Democratic slant.

Also, what exactly are voters approving of regarding Romney?

It is. And Florida party registration was 42% Dem, 36% Rep in 2008, when Obama carried the state 51-48% with a D+3 turnout advantage. http://election.dos.state.fl.us/nvra/history.asp

Wow almost 700,000 democrats registered to vote from 2007 to 2008, I wonder what sort of bump will happen this year with the new voter registrtion laws.

Please explain why you disagree with this poll, it shows proper registration sampling and a slight decrease in dem voter turnout from 2008. What makes you think this has a "Democratic slant"? I'm just wondering.

So I am guessing Florida tied, and VA D+3 right now?

I don't think Obama +4 matches up with what national polls are saying, which have Obama ahead by a couple points or so. This is not the first PPP that has done that, though this isn't as far off as some of the others they've produves.

Point being?

A claim was made that Q is a troll polling firm - that graph countered the claim by showing Q to be the most accurate in the most recent cycle.

I strongly doubt Obama wins Florida again.  Romney only needs a 1.5-2% improvement over McCain to take Florida.  He's at that right now easily. 

Florida's very Republican friendly

PPP's "voter" sample is 41% Dem, 40% Rep, 19% Indy (D+1). 2008 Florida turnout was D+3 (37D/34R/29I), while 2004 Florida turnout was R+4 (37D/41R/23I).

Here's RCP's summary of all Florida polls taken in last month and a half. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/fl/florida_romney_vs_obama-1883.html Like every other swing-state, PPP has Obama doing better in Florida than any other pollster, save NBC. http://gop12.thehill.com/2012/06/ppp-battleground-polls-skewed-in-favor.html

Why don't you look at the 2010 exit poll's partisan affiliation? It's likely the partisan id in 2012 will be somewhere between 2008 and 2010.

No change from 2008 in statewide voting practices is easy, and even if it seems to have happened it is shaky.

Great news for Romney given the required PPP house adjustment.

Yes, its a closer race after we apply the karzen1211 corollary of the MilesC56 rule.

PPP tends to be heavily skewed early on, getting more accurate before the election.

In Wisconsin it went from super-skewed to just somewhat skewed (it looked sort of like Rasmussen in 2010, actually).
