Three swing states are not exactly swinging in the right direction for former Florida governor Jeb Bush. 

Bush had dropped eight points in little more than a month in his home state of Florida, a new Quinnipiac University poll finds. While the presumptive GOP frontrunner leads the new poll with 24 percent support from the 428 registered Republicans surveyed, putting him out front of his Republican rivals in the Sunshine State, that's down from 32 percent of Florida voters who said they supported him for president on Feb. 4.
