CQ Politics on South Florida Congressional Races

In a recognition that the race is tightening, CQ Politics, a leading observer of congressional electoral politics, has just changed its rating for FL-18, the race in which Annette Taddeo is challenging long-time incumbent Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.

CQ Politics is a conservative and lagging indicator of of the degree to which incumbents are threatened. Here are how its ratings have changed for the South Florida Congressional races:

Florida 18: One year ago: Safe Republican
Six months ago: Safe Republican
Today: Republican Favored
Florida 21:
One year ago: Safe Republican
Six months ago: Republican Favored
Today: Leans Republican
Florida 25:
One year ago: Safe Republican
Six months ago: Republican Favored
Today: Leans Republican

Personally I’d say the Democrats are out in front in FL-21, it’s very close in FL-25 (but early voting is looking good! Go Joe!), and Annette Taddeo still has a little (but less and less) ground to make up in ~~FL-25~~ FL-18.

But the bottom line is clear: no one is safe this year.

Typo: two lots of FL-25.
