    this is what a poll with a legit sample looks like right now.
    this will obviously change going forward.
    we expect Romney to pick up the majority of undecided and more of the others.

    I expect Obama will start a war or flat tax campaign.

    Just wait until the Fall, especially November - all libs will be saying that Romney, after all, is one of them (in a few oscure dimensions they'll invent and spin, like hair color) and that they wanted him to win all along! :)

  9. New Quinnipiac University poll

    Obama leads Romney in three key states, poll shows




    President Barack Obama leads Mitt Romney in the three critical swing states of Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, a Quinnipiac University Swing State Poll released Wednesday shows.

    The poll shows Obama with a tight 4-point edge in Florida, a healthy 9 points in Ohio and 6 points in Pennsylvania.

    That's a change from a Quinnipiac University poll on May 3 that showed Obama with an 8-point lead in Pennsylvania with Florida and Ohio too close to call.

    Here's the state-by-state breakdown from the latest poll:

    Florida: Obama edges Romney 45 — 41 percent;
    Ohio: Obama over Romney 47 — 38 percent;
    Pennsylvania: Obama tops Romney 45 — 39 percent.

    No one has won the White House since 1960 without taking at least two of these three states.

    "President Barack Obama has decent margins over Gov. Mitt Romney in Ohio and Pennsylvania and a smaller advantage in Florida. If he can keep those leads in all three of these key swing states through election day he would be virtually assured of re-election," said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. "Of course the election is more than four months away, which is a lifetime in politics."

    Brown noted that Obama's margin is built on his big lead among women, younger voters and African-Americans. He also said Obama, on the heels of his order preventing deportation of some younger illegal immigrants, holds a big lead among Hispanic voters.

    The poll, conducted June 19 — 25, has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.8 percentage points in each state.

    Obama winning by 8 points in swing states

    The swing states: Obama’s lead and Romney’s decline

    Another place where Obama is running ahead: the swing states.

    Among swing-state respondents in the poll – those living in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin – Obama leads Romney, 50 to 42 percent.

    Also in these swing states, Romney’s favorability numbers have dropped, possibly reflecting the toll the negative Obama TV advertisements are having on the former Massachusetts governor in these battlegrounds.

    A month ago, Romney’s favorable/unfavorable score stood at 34-38 percent nationally and 36-36 percent in the 12 swing states.

    But in this latest survey, his national fav/unfav score is 33-39 percent and 30-41 percent in the swing states.

    In addition, the poll shows that attitudes about Romney’s business background – a frequent target in Obama ads – also are more unfavorable in these battlegrounds.



    Among swing-state respondents, 18 percent say what they’ve seen and heard about Romney’s business record gives them a more positive opinion about the Republican candidate, versus 33 percent who say it’s more negative.

    That’s compared to the national 23-to-28 percent margin on this question.

    “It’s been more of a problematic month from May to June for Romney,” says McInturff, the GOP pollster.
