Poll: Romney holds narrow lead in Florida

With a week to go in the presidential race, a new poll shows the race for Florida's 29 electoral votes is going to be very, very close.

Mitt Romney leads President Obama, 50% to 49%, among likely Florida voters, according to a new poll released Monday by CNN/ORC International.

Obama narrowly won Florida in 2008. The Sunshine State is the biggest prize among the nine or 10 battlegrounds that will decide this year's election.

CNN polling director Keating Holland says about 5% of likely Florida voters are "truly undecided or have a preference but have not completely made up their minds." The CNN results also show 55% of men backing Romney and 54% of women supporting Obama.

The CNN poll comes as a new national poll shows the presidential race is deadlocked. A new Pew Research Center poll says Obama and Romney now each have 47% support among likely voters.

Romney campaigned throughout Florida on Saturday. Obama was scheduled to campaign in Orlando on Monday, but canceled his trip to go back to Washington and monitor the federal response to Hurricane Sandy.

CNN's survey of 1,010 Florida voters was taken Thursday through Sunday. It has a margin of error of +/-3.5 percentage points.
