Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) leads U.S. House Rep. Connie Mack (R-FL) in Florida’s ever-tightening U.S. Senate race, according to a new poll released Wednesday.
A new poll from Quinnipiac University, CBS News and the New York Times shows Nelson leading Mack among likely Florida voters, 47-40 percent.
Recent polls have shown Mack ahead of Nelson, who is seeking a third term. The PollTracker Average tracks the inroads made over the last two months by Mack, but Nelson still clings to a slim lead, 44.5-43.9 percent.
