POLLS SHOW ROMNEY UP IN OH, IA, CO -- TIED IN WI, NH

JOHN NOLTE 1 Nov 2012

The race is on between two entirely different sets of polling turnout models. One says the electorate will look like the wave election of 2008 that swept Obama into office with a seven-percent turnout election. Another says the electorate will look more like 2004, when neither party enjoyed an advantage. Here are eight reasons my money's on the 2004 model and here are more polls backing that up:

OHIO:

Republican pollster Citizens United show Romney up in Ohio 49-46% .

WISCONSIN:

Citizens United has Romney trailing by only two in Wisconsin, 49-47% and a new WI poll from Rasmussen shows the race tied at 49%. We know Wisconsin is close, because both candidates are spending precious time there in the closing days of the campaign.

There's even a juiced Marist Poll showing Obama only up 3 in the Dairy State. Last week, Marist had Obama up 6. Their skew is D+5. 2008 was D+6 and 2010 was R+1. So Marist is awfully optimistic about Obama's turnout advantage. Regardless, Romney has some real momentum there.

In 2008, Obama won Wisconsin by 14 points.

COLORADO:

Today, Rasmussen has Romney up 3 in Colorado, 50-47%.

IOWA:

Rasmussen has Romney ahead in Iowa by 1, 49-48%. Last week, Rasmussen had the race tied. A University of Hawkeye poll also shows Romney up a bit in Iowa. A new Marist poll has Obama up in Iowa, but it's looking like an outlier. Marist almost always shows Obama with better margins than other pollsters. Which means…

NEW HAMPSHIRE:

…that when a pro-Obama pollster like Marist shows Romney only down 2 in New Hampshire (49-47%), that's good news, especially with respect to momentum. In September, Obama was up 7.

Citizens United is a heavy Republican organization. Their polls, like the Dems’ PPP, are not trustworthy.

Thanks LS I think WI, my next door neighbor, will go for the Repubs the conservatives are just really excited to vote out there. Also I would not be surprised if MO turned out to be a shocker with Akin. Lets hope for the best and pray for the worst!
