49 + 49 + 2 + 1 = 101
Are these figures rounded, or is a 1% fraud adjustment factored into this poll?
I see no internal breakdown of Party affliation.
Obama wins Indys by 8? Bullshit. Even Quinnipiac, SurveyUSA and PPP have Romney winning Ohio Independents. Rasmussen’s fudging the OH Independent vote because a close race brings in more money than a blowout. Expect Rasmussen’s last poll to show a sudden surge for Romney in Ohio.
I call baloney
I really think Chris Christie murdered the Romney campaign.
I am not giving up hope, but he gave the Kenyan the cover he desperately needed to appear moderate which allowed him to win back the Indie voters.
I hope he never wins another race as long as he lives. Even John Roberts’ betrayal wasn’t as bad as Christie’s.
Notice that they, the Pollsters, never get around to saying how many telephonees told them to get the bleep off their phone and their preference is none of the pollster’s business.. And there is no honest mathematical way to compensate for either those or the people who simply can’t be reached by phone——especially during elections. God bless caller ID.
Wow!! What a bunch of hand-wringers.
It’s a tie ball game. Romney was predicted to lose this state going away a few weeks back. And here we are with 3 days to go, and it’s deadlocked.
Romney up about 5 on the two issues related to the economy.
Calm down, people. Romney has a great opportunity to close this deal. And that’s what he does best.
I find all the hand wringing about Romney being “desperate” by going to PA hilarious. Do you guys have access to Romney’s internals?
If there’s anything that’s for certain, is that Mitt Romney is going to going to do everything he can to make himself the 45th President. He’s no loser like McCain.
Perhaps Rasmussen meant to say that Romney has the independent lead. That would match these:
Romney lead among independents in NPR national poll: 51-39 Romney lead among independents in CBS/New York Times national poll: 51-39 Romney lead among independents in Pew national poll: 48-40 Romney lead among independents in Fox News national poll: 46-39
Now, wait a minute. Bill Cunningham was on Hannity’s show yesterday and said that Romney was going to win Ohio, and he cited several reasons why. As a native Ohioan, I know what he was talking about. Haven’t lived there in about 30 years, but I still have relatives there. His reasons sound plausible, so I’m not about to go drown my sorrows in chocolate cake yet.
Remember Ras showed Romney +2 a few days ago? Now he says tie. Dems say they have been working on the OH ground game for 4 years. We’ll see how many winos, illegals, and alzheimer’s patients they round up.
Something is very wrong here. Romney is whipping Obama with Independents nationally, consistently by 10-20%. And Mark Halperin even stated Romney was winning Ohio with Independents.

About that 50-41 advantage among indies for Obama. The recent polls are all over the map with that group. Here are the most recent measurements of indies:
Gravis Marketing (10/27) — R 53, O 41
UC Ohio Poll 10/25 - 10/30) — R 32, O 46
SurveyUSA (10/26 - 10/29) — R 48, O 37
I wonder what affect the power outages had on the ability to get a representative and comparative poll.
I know this is not a popular view among Freepers, but I don’t see any problem with presidential candidate going to TV talk show. As long as it’s selective and be prepared to set aside some questions, I don’t see why not. If, and I’m not saying he will, 0bama win on Tuesday, I think partly because of his visibility at the past 2 weeks before the election. After the 3rd debate, Romney only did state-by-state campaign, and he basically disappears from national media.
Folks, several polls show indies backing Obama, a disturbing trend this shows also. A bit worrisome.
This is definitely the most depressing poll I’ve read in months. I just can’t believe that you can have that much of a massive swing in Indies based on a storm that had almost no effect on OH. I know Indies are idiots but even that is a stretch. This poll would have to have model that favors R’s to get this result. Is this consistent with previous Ras OH polls ?
The good news is that a 1% increase in R turnout advantage can almost erase this lead with Indies. As important as Indies are turnout of R’s is the real key.

The libtards on the DUmp are quoting “posters” (aka fake accounts) in this thread on their faggotry site.
