Pollster John Zogby sees Obama's lead widening WNYT ^ Posted on Wed Oct 22 23:51:12 2008 by Chet 99 Posted at: 10/22/2008 11:16:24 PM By: Beth Wurtmann POLLSTER SAYS OBAMA'S LEAD WIDENING SARATOGA SPRINGS - Utica-based pollster John Zogby was the guest speaker at Planned Parenthood Mohawk Hudson's annual celebration in Saratoga Springs Wednesday night. He said the issue of reproductive rights is not a front-burner issue in this presidential campaign. "The economy has really sucked all the oxygen out of so many issues that it really dominates people's minds," said Zogby. "So there will be some people who vote on the issue of choice, but they're not as large as one might have anticipated." But organizers at the event said this election is pivotal for women. Democrat Barack Obama supports abortion rights. Republican John McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin - are abortion opponents. "But it's a very major issue for many people who are worried about the possible overturning of Roe v Wade. If the wrong person is elected," said Margaret Roberts, CEO and Co-President of Planned Parenthood Mohawk Hudson. Zogby said polls show more than 80% of Americans say the candidates' economic to determine their vote. His newest poll has Obama's lead over McCain widening to 10%. The reason? Zogby said Palin stole the spotlight....and can't get out of it. "Sarah Palin was supposed to disappear after the first week. She dominated the headlines. And that - plus John McCain being off-message - particularly on the economy, has hurt the McCain campaign," he said. Zogby said a new poll he is releasing on Thursday has Obama's lead growing.
