Florida poll: Republicans lead in the races for governor and Senate
The new survey shows the state’s Hispanic voters shifting away from President Donald Trump after Republicans made gains in 2024.
What the coverage shows
The Hill and NBC News both frame the item as a poll story built around race leads, but they diverge on which contest and state they foreground. The Hill focuses on Iowa and spells out that Democrats are leading in both the governor and Senate races, while NBC News instead leads with a Florida poll and says Republicans are ahead in the governor and Senate races. NBC News also uniquely mentions Hispanic voters shifting away from Trump after Republican gains in 2024.
