Yes, I thought that was strange.
Maybe the numbers in that first chart (the four age categories) got switched - that would make more sense than the Obambi leading in all age categories except the 18-35. Those are his peeps in the 18-35.
Looking at the breakout I think this poll is made up!
Young people aren’t known for voting. I wonder if the report is wrong relative to % for each age group.
John
The age breakdown table must be a screwup.
The hispanic vote is the big wild card in this race.
To be blunt, there is real racial animosity between hispanics and blacks. I’m not saying it is right or wrong, but it does exist.
Hillary’s huge hispanic support was as much an anti-Obama vote as anything.
The assumption is that those hispanic voters will stay democratic is suspect. Especially when you have McCain (the one republican that pushed the amnesty bill) on the republican ticket.
Yeah, but to McCain, "youth" is anyone under 60!
LOL!

Rassmussen still has McCain down in Michigan :(
These polls are like a train wreck......I can’t help but look although I know Nov 4th is the day we’ll know.
“I just can’t see it.”
I can...
A lot of blacks are getting turned off by the “prophet” business with Obama, and think he is taking them for granted...
If just a FEW don’t vote for Obama, or do not show up, he’s finished...
Love it! :)
At the same time most polls were only lightly visited.
Vote fraud not only happens in Michigan, it's a way of life there.
A poll, on the other hand, is based on population estimates, not phoney registrations.
I am thinking the black voters that may be going toward McCain probably have religious or personal views against abortion.
That is the only thing that would make sense to me at this point.
Hispanics in Michigan are stronger supporters of McCain than are whites?
It’s not the size of the black vote but the percentage. If only 4 blacks lived in Mich and 3 voted for Obama the percentage is still 25% for McCain. With the black vote breaking 90% Obama everwhere else I have to agree with other posters that this poll looks wrong.
These are the polls that really count.
Not a “major” pollster, IIRC, but still, it shows a trend.
If I had to guess today, McCain will win Michigan by a point in November.
This poll doesn’t seem very accurate . . McCain is only getting 33 percent of the female vote?
I wouldn’t trust this.
