New poll numbers show Attorney General Bill McCollum leading his democratic rival for governor by double digits.

McCollum�s ahead of Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink, 41 to 31 percent, according to a Quinnipiac poll released today. Pollster Peter Brown says besides name recognition, Sink is also being hurt by the country�s growing distaste for Democrats.

�Well obviously this has not been a good few months for Democrats around the country. Probably has worn off a bit on her but we have a long way to go and voters don’t really know much about either gubernatorial candidate. It’s certainly better to be ahead by double digits than behind by double digits but we still have a long way to go in that race,� said Brown.

The poll also shows McCollum crushing his primary opponent, State Senator Paula Dockery 44 to 6 percent.
