Six days to go.
Today's poll includes one day of POST Sandy coverage. So by Friday, all polling data will be post Sandy and with 1000 daily interviews
So, consider yesterday's poll as the baseline for PRE-SANDY
So much for the reported ‘good’ Obama day rolling off.
Hi Software:
How do the internals look?
I guess we won’t see Barry’s “Sandy Bounce” until this weekend.
Key is Obama still at 47
Key is Obama still at 47
Key is Obama still at 47
Tatown,
What we don’t know is if yesterday was a good President Obama day.
That is why in my comments I said, let us wait for Friday’s poll
What is an unknown over here is if Hurricane Sandy is going to benefit the President
Dont get weak. this race is close and people predicting landslides are not informed and just doing wishful thinking.
It does bother me Romney has started going 49 in Rasmussen’s polls when all last week it was 50%.
Obama is still sitting at 47%. I don’t see him getting a bounce from Sandy.
Its hard to see how O can overcome his problems with key voting blocs in the next five days.
Romney’s lead is consistent and appears to be enduring.
So far, so good.
No Sandy bounce yet.
There will be no Sandy bounce. This is really a non-event, the economy and other issues matter.
Sill don’t have it posted for us nonsuscribers. They are an hour late so is it the storm or time change.
So Romney was absolutely right. 47% would vote for zero despite the reasonable suspicion that he committed negligent homicide by going to bed while Americans were fighting terrorist for their lives, he’s downgraded this country and everything he said in 08 was obviously B.S. and yet they still vote for him.
I just can’t understand this.
Both sides have nailed down 47% of the vote. Unless Sandy gives Obambi a bounce, that won’t change.
It all comes down to turnout then. The Dems say their GOTV effort will make the difference, but the GOP has intensity and a lead amongst Indies on its side.
I do agree that talks of a blowout by either side are unrealistic. It is going to be razor close, but I think Romney is in a slightly better position as of today.
He just needs to find a way to close strong to bring this home.
You appear to have angered it!
Really would like to see Romney at 50+ but can’t really complain. November 6th can’t get here soon enough!
