Filtering: 2,000 state of Florida adults were interviewed on 01/09/08 and 01/10/08, after the New Hampshire Primary results were known. Of the adults, 1,744 were registered to vote. Of them, 577 were determined by SurveyUSA to be likely to vote in the 01/29/08 Florida Democratic Primary. In the 17 days between this poll and the Florida Primary, voting will take place in Nevada and South Carolina. Those outcomes can and will buffet the candidates in Florida. These results may change significantly.
