Those approval/disapproval numbers are strikingly similar.

Also those South Carolina numbers look for the President

Only quibble is the 30% of sample contacted through cell phones, and 17% of respondents aged 18-29 vs. 30% of respondents aged 60 and older (for Florida).  That sounds off, no?

Hmm, hadn't noticed that. Does seem a bit off.

Not really. The 2008 exit poll for FL showed:

18-29: 15%
65 or older: 22%

Considering that you have to add at least 5% to that number, because Marist uses the 60+ category, the numbers are correct.
