Today, Rasmussen released a new poll in Florida showing Mitt Romney ahead 46-45 over Barack Obama. This is the first poll here in 3 months where the former Massachusetts Governor was shown in the lead. That said, over the last 4 polls have shown a slow and steadt decline in Obama's lead. In Rasmussen's poll 6 weeks ago, Obama was ahead by 3. As a result, his lead is cut from 5 down to about 3.6%. Florida remains barely in his column, but it would not be at all surprising if Florida moves back into the toss-up column before long. Romney also moves closer in the total popular vote by about 136,000 in my projection and cuts into the President's overall lead from 6.00% to 5.90%.
