As you can see in this story, a new Kimball Political consulting poll has Patrick Murphy leading Allen West by 4, 49-45, with a 4.8% margin of error. The same poll has Obama leading Romney by 7, 52-45 in the district
You can read the poll in this pdf
Several cautions
1. Poll was taken in one day, Sept 28 (Friday)
2. Poll shows young voters breaking for Romney!! 60-41
Thus while this poll offers good information, I would like to see some confirmation from other sources

This is one of the seats we most want to win. Allen West does not belong in public service. Hoping there is other data to support this poll.
