Without question this is the most positive news of the day. Near the bottom of the article it shows among early voters Romney is up 50/43, which supports Gallup's findings.

It amazes me how they keep saying it’s deadlocked when ewvery poll shows Romney ahead AND undecideds break for the challenger by 80%.

I’m expecting a Romney victory of almost biblical proportions.

I find it jarring how other sections of the web honestly believe that Romney has less than a 25% chance of winning. It’s like they’re looking at a different election.

Then again, they will never answered my question when I pressed them about examining crosstabs.

How is a 50% - 43% lead among the 19% of the population that claims to have voted “deadlocked”?

I agree. This is encouraging. Pew and Rasmussen were the two pollsters that nailed the 2008 election.

Obama at 47% and Romney up 7 in early voting are both great signs. That represents a 26 point swing to our side from 2008.

I think I may need to quit watching polls between now and election day though. These ups and downs are going to wind up killing me.

It has been ‘hysterical women day’ on Jay Severin’s radio show at the Blaze today...Romney supporters all, but completely and utterly freaking out...amazing.

The problem is that it may or may not be reflective of the ELECTORAL college vote. If Obama is poised to win WI, OH and VI, the popular vote becomes irrelevant.

That is why I wanna know if Mitt is still campaigning in OH - by God he better not still be trying to gain public support on a humanitarian appeal. This is the absolute worst possible time for him to be wasting time looking for donations when he’s in OH. He needs to destroy Obama in OH, not just pull out a win.

Intersting. Of course, a small sample, not statistically significant etc, but it does tally (almost exactly) with Gallup’s figures.

Pollsters always live in their own little universe and never (officially) compare their figures with the results from other pollsters, therefore the similarity between this result and Gallup’s will not be mentioned by any of the polling organizations.

anyone here good at math? If Romney leads by 7% with the first 19% that has come in, what percent must Obama get in the remaining 81% percent to win?

Why does the headline say early voting is tied (I even see this as good news) if Pew’s graphic says Romney is up seven? I’m confused.

I expect we’ll see numerous cooked polls by the Marxist media designed to discourage conservative voters from showing up on election day. That will not work.

The propaganda press needs to pay a severe price for what it did during Buckwheat’s reign.
