Continuing on the prediction threads.

I feel like Crist will win at this point, based on what the early and absentee votes are like so far. Scott can't really claim the momentum and he's already spent millions with only a virtual tie at best.

Crist, but I'm secretly hoping it's close enough that the fan can be blamed.

Barring the night being 2010-esque, Crist will win.

Unfortunately, Rick Scott got a shout-out from Pitbull a few days ago which is just the boost he needed to put this race away. Mr. 305 lalalallaalla GET YOUR HANDS UP DOLLY

I'm honestly don't know. All signs point to Crist, but I won't write Scott off yet.

I admit that I am going to vote for Scott in the poll simply out of hackishness since I can see this going either way. If I had to wager my life, I'd go with Crist, but I think people overestimate how well liked he is.

Literally everybody hates both of them. The only exception (I know of) is SJoyce at this point.

Barring some election night hijinks (which are certainly a possibility), Crist should have this.

I'm certain that both Crist and Scott will get more than 46% of the vote and that it won't be by a difference of more than 2 points or so. The forum's warped sense of Scott has you all thinking it should be a blowout, but Crist is just as mediocre and unlikable as Scott is and with him as the Democratic candidate it was never going to be anything but a last-person-to-gaffe-loses kind of race. Crist looks more likely to win right now, but Scott pulling a win out of nowhere wouldn't surprise me in the least.

I'll bet Crist wins 48.1% to Scott's 46.8%.

I think Wyllie won't get anything approaching the 7-9% the polls are talking about.   It's not like Georgia--where the Libertarian vote has consistently polled 4-6% or more for several years

Both Crist and Scott will get 45+%, and Crist will pull it out by 1 point.

Crist                    48.5
Scott                   47.5
Wyllie and others 4.0

The sentiment down here is that Crist will pull it out by maybe a point or two, but even a lot of Democrats aren't thrilled with him.  The Democrats want a young, fresh face to lead the way in FL as the GOP still on a local level, has the state by the you know what.

This article is 4 days old, but with today being the last day of early voting, I honestly think this is anyone's game. Crist is going to need huge turnout in Palm beach, broward, and dade to offset to rest of the state. However, he may not need to win by as much if central Florida comes in strong for him.

Most people I know also hate both, and not a single one of that group that I have spoken with has decided on who they will vote for.
