Miami Herald poll: Obama ahead of Romney by 9 Miami-Dade.

President Barack Obama, while besting Republican challenger Mitt Romney, also seems to have significantly less support among county voters today than he had in 2008, when a double-digit win in Miami-Dade helped him carry Florida.

The Herald’s poll of 625 likely voters, conducted by Jacksonville-based Mason-Dixon Polling & Research, addressed a series of local issues, including several proposed amendments to the Miami-Dade charter included on the Nov. 6 ballot. The voters were also asked about their opinions on the Obama administration’s Cuba policies. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points.

Miami Dade is always blue - and the big voter drive was very focused on specific (Dem) voters. But nice to see this anyway!

Assuming that Rep. David Rivera will be going down hard and Democrat Joe Garcia will win handily. Rivera has 11 indictments against him... !
