FLORIDA DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY -- Clinton Pushes Obama Off Center-Stage: In a Democratic Primary in Florida today, 01/14/08, 2 weeks to the vote, Hillary Clinton defeats Barack Obama by 33 points, according to a SurveyUSA tracking poll conducted exclusively for WFLA-TV Tampa and WKRG-TV Mobile. Today: it's Clinton 56%, Obama 23%, John Edwards 14%. In 6 SurveyUSA tracking polls over the past 10 weeks, Clinton has led by 30 points or more on 5 occasions. Obama closed to within 20 points only once, in interviews conducted by SurveyUSA immediately following the New Hampshire primary, and released 01/11/08. In the 3 days since then, Clinton is up 5, Obama is down 9. Clinton's support among females is higher than it has ever been in Florida, now 65%. She leads Obama among women by 46 points.

Filtering: 2,000 state of Florida adults were interviewed by SurveyUSA 01/11/08 through 01/13/08. Of them, 1,752 were registered to vote. Of them, 601 were determined by SurveyUSA to be likely to vote in the Democratic Primary on 01/29/08. Results from Nevada on 01/19/08 and South Carolina on 01/26/08 can and will color what happens in Florida. Expect further buffeting in future SurveyUSA tracking polls.
