"Even in the midst of an unprecedented health crisis, Florida delivers a familiar deja vu in the head to head presidential race," Quinnipiac University Polling analyst Tim Malloy said. "It's Biden, but it's close as independents play a huge potential role. Sound familiar?"
Biden is the Democrats' presumptive presidential nominee and will unveil a vice presidential selection committee by May 1.
The poll was conducted from April 16-20 among 1,385 self-identified registered Florida voters. The margin of error is plus or minus 2.6 percentage points.
