A new poll from the Civitas Institute found that the Democratic ticket of President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden is 4 percentage points ahead of the Republican slate presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.
The Civitas Poll of 600 likely North Carolina voters was taken Sept. 18-19 and had a margin of error of plus-minus 4 percent. Asked if the election were held today who they would vote for, 49 percent chose Obama/Biden and 45 percent chose Romney/Ryan. (This is the first 2012 Civitas Poll to include the vice presidential candidates.)
Never heard of this poll.
What’s that Baltimore football fan chant again?
now breakdown by party/affiliation...no link to polling data...the comments uner this poll even calling this out...
This poll is BS..Rasmussen already had a poll a week ago that shows Romney with a 6 point lead. Even Bob Beckel conceded that Romney has won NC
BS poll.
They released it today... WTH? Why hold it for a few days before releasing. and yet... it indicates that it’s a GOP-sponsored poll??
I just don’t think opinions are swayed this easily.
I would tend to agree, but at RCP, it indicates that it’s a GOP-sponsored poll... That’s the sole reason I thought it was a little note-worthy
If that's the case here, I think most of these other polls are bogus.
actually one of the commenters found the info: “Because the sample is made of : 45% Democrats, 33% Republicans and 22% Independents. Thats just crazy!”
BALONEY! 9.5 percent Unemployment in NC and there is anyone who believes this? Romney will win NC by 10 percentage points. Why do you post stuff like this?
45/33/22 (D/R/I) - Bullshit
This poll is old, why not pull it?
Oh and BTW newbie I’d suggest you think twice about what you are posting. This poll is old and would only serve one purpose.
Not every poll under the sun needs to be posted. I mean who in the hell is Civitas Polling anyway?
Romney needs to do well in suburbs and exurbs.
The rest look ugly, mostly from the usual liberal slime... but also, Ras has Obama in a blowout in Michigan (O+12, same as PA)...
Others, down in Colorado (PPP- O+6), Nevada (ARG- O+7), Iowa (ARG- O+7), Florida (ARG- O+5), Wisconsin (WeAskAm- O+12)... and it continues.
45D-33R-22I sample in a state Obama won in 2008 by .03 of a point.
Garbage in-Garbage out polling.
I posted it, cause it’s a REPUB poll... So... I felt that was a little note-worthy
A poll taken September 18-19 is not “new” at this point.
