The latest poll in the CD-22 Allen West-Ron Klein race has West leading 47-44, in a poll conducted by the Sunshine State News Poll, which surveyed 800  likely voters on Oct 17-19, and has a margin of error of +/- 3.46 percent.  Nine percent of respondents are undecided.

Even more favorable for West is the fact that his 3-point lead grows to 5 points among respondents who say their chances of voting are “excellent” (49-44), and 4 points among “2x” voters, voters who voted in both 2006 and 2008 (48-44).
