The Florida Senate race between incumbent Democrat Bill Nelson and leading challenger Rep. Connie Mack is neck-and-neck, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday. The poll shows Nelson 1 point ahead of Mack, 41 percent to 40 percent.
“The U.S. Senate race between Bill Nelson and Connie Mack remains a dead heat with 17 percent of voters still undecided, an unusually large number,” Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, said in the release.
The PollTracker Average has Nelson leading Mack 41.6 percent to 39.5 percent.
The poll is based on 1,200 interviews of Florida voters between June 19-25 and has a 2.8 percent margin of error.
