According to a CNN/ORC International survey released Friday, President Barack Obama holds a three point advantage over Republican nominee Mitt Romney in the contest for Ohio's much fought over 18 electoral votes.
Fifty-percent of likely voters questioned in the poll say they are backing the president, with 47% supporting the former Massachusetts governor. Obama's three-point edge is within the survey's sampling error. The survey was conducted Tuesday through Thursday...
... with 7% saying they could still change their mind on their choice for president.
Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson, Green Party candidate Jill Stein, and Constitution Party candidate Virgil Goode are also on the presidential ballot in Ohio. When their names were added to the poll, Obama is at 47%, Romney 44%, with Johnson at 5%, Stein at 1% and Goode registering less than one-half of one percent.

Excellent advice for all the hand wringers, nervous nellies, ledge standers, and 'concerned' weenies in here, ma'am !
And above all else y'all :
Third-party voters are drug-addled, animal molesting, sociopathic retards.
Democrats are even worse.
Yes, the 5% Libertarian was a dead give-away that this is a slimey poll
Never heard of ORC International survey till now..
Lol I misspoke I originally thought this poll was in favor of Romney.
Precisely!
((((tomkat))))
Unfortunately, CNN is running in the lobby of the building where I work. It is non-stop leftist propaganda. They torture facts and omit anything that goes counter to the liberal/statist narrative. You can’t believe anything they say or write.
Prove them wrong, Ohio.
796 is the sample size? What a joke.
It is CNN, but this is very bad news for any chance of Romney/Ryan winning. Obama will win, sad but true.
Oh please.
Libertarians are an entire wing of the Republican party. There is no pro-liberty analog on the Democrat side. They are all statists.
I believe the last CNN poll of Ohio was O+5, yes?
So let’s look at trends only - Romney has now moved 2 points closer according to the biased CNN, so the trend is in our favor and Romney is likely up in Ohio at this point.
I gotta nice bridge to sell ya.
“Obama will win, sad but true.”
THE LAST POLL FROM ORC HAD obama UP BY 5 POINTS WHEN GALLUP HAD MITT UP BY 5 POINTS. Are you going to vote for Mitt or are you going to surrender to propaganda?

Hi dear friend... WE WILL WIN!

Over? OVER? Was it over when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor? NO! It ain't over until we SAY it's over!!!
There is a portion of the Progressives who call themselves libertarian. Their main issues are drugs and sex: no laws at all regarding either. They have major problems w/authority, which is why they don’t admit to having anything in common w/statists.
I have had some of them admit to me that they would vote D if there was no L choice.
They say they back Ron Paul.
