Original title: Shock Poll: Pro-Democrat Polling Group Finds Barack Obama only Leading Mitt Romney by Five Points in Washington (10/17/12)
-----------------------
We just posted a new shock poll by left-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP) in the state of Washington and they find Barack Obama leading Mitt Romney by only 5-points, despite using a Democrat +6 sample. This may be a total outlier poll, but PPP is usually very sympathetic to the Democrats, so it is truly puzzling how they came up with this result, unless Obama really is losing ground all across the country. I guess well know within a couple of weeks as we head into the final week of the campaign.

Welcome, fellow conservative. I'm a native Californian who moved family and business here in late 2005. At the time, we had no idea what a wise choice we were making.
If it had actually been DC instead of Washington state, I would have put money down on Romney winning 45+ states! DC will go about 85% Obama! Now if Washington state could go Romney, it would still be a landslide overall, just less then were it DC.
barky will win DC by 80+ points
We’ve been here since July 2011 and we love it.
Similarly, I’d like to see Illinois polled. RCP has the last poll done in early September, and even then it was only Obama +13, and that was Registered Voters (not likely voters), was before the 9/11 debacle in Libya, and was back when they were assuming 2008 turnout distributions.
It wouldn’t surprise me to find out that Illinois was a Toss Up state today, especially since every state around it is also a Toss Up now.
What I dont get is how Intrade can have 0 as a 65% favorite to win.

Maybe they’re stupid?
What counts is Scytl. And Soros owns that.
Americans can’t participate on Intrade. It’s all a bunch of foreigners on it.
A +6 Dem in WA may be a little low considering the amount of loons that live around here.
There's a whole lot to love about Texas, but please don't tell the libs that. There's more than enough of them here already. Thank goodness there's still more of us. I'd like to keep it that way.
I live in WA State, north of Seattle. This area is crawling with liberals! Most people I meet on golf courses are democrats. Previously we lived in Clark county at south end of WA state and that county elected a republican congress woman. If R+R wins WA state, it will just be amazing, but I am not counting on it. Oregon has a closer race.
I was pissed because I have never been polled before and I wanted to hear the rest of the questions.
Who knows, they had Paul Ryan being chosen for VP at only 4.1%
They had Portman at 32%. Intrade is meaningless.
not quite. just the western counties from pierce to whatcom,
plus indian country.
Poor George. He's not going to be with us for but another day or two, maybe. 90. After retiring from politics, he ran a business, hotels, and he said that he was shocked by the amount of regulations and red tape, and that had he known how harmful all the regulations are he wouldn't of been in favor of it all.
D.C. has three electoral votes. But you’re right, they won’t poll it, as it is literally about 75% Democrat.
Bullshit
