Rasmussen Battleground Polls for 10/14
Rasmussen Reports ^ | October 14, 2004

Posted on 10/14/2004 3:21:20 PM PDT by RWR8189

Here are Rasmussen's 7 day rolling averages of 5 key battleground states:

Florida, Bush 47%-45% (This is a 1 point Kerry gain, and the eighth day in a row that Kerry has either picked up points, or kept pace and a 5 point gain in a week)

Ohio, Bush 49%-47% (This is a 2 point Kerry gain from yesterday, and the closest he's been in 10 days)

Michigan, Kerry 48%-46% (This is a 1 point Bush gain from yesterday, and 2 points in 2 days)

Minnesota, Kerry 48%-45% (This is a 1 point Kerry gain from yesterday, and matches his largest lead here in at least 10 days)

Pennsylvania, Kerry 47%-46% (This is unchanged from yesterday)

The most Reagan-like candidate on any given ballot.

yah, I know. But Ras DID have the 2002 Senate races right on, and the rest of these idiots didn't.

Interesing that for all this talk about NH being a "Kerry" state now, he isn't spending a minute there. He also appears to have given up on NM. It seems that his "spa" vacation was his last visit there, according to the Boston Globe. He's in Iowa, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota, NEVADA, and Florida.

So Kerry apparently thinks Michigan is safe, huh? Four Gore states and three Bush states.

On the other hand, Bush is in Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota. He will make two trips to Oregon. Note that Florida isn't on the list.

I gather from this that Kerry thinks Michigan is safe and Bush thinks Florida is safe and both think NH is safe. . . but for whom? They both think Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania are in play. That's four Gore states.

And, he's going to New Jersey next week, probably to put pressure on Kerry in PA, but who knows - perhaps NJ really is in play.

It seems the "Bush is pulling out of PA" stories yesterday were a bit of Rovian Disinformation. :)

Funny how Kerry seems to "gain" all the time---yet is always behind.

Good point. His "surge" should have him about 8 points up.

Newt on Hannity radio this afternoon. His prediction? It would be close a few more days, and then Bush would pill away to about the same lead he had before the debates. Then in the last few days, Bush would pull away to a very LARGE lead. Newt's a republican, but a good strategist and predictor. He wouldn't take the chance on complacency, if the didn't think that Bush didn't have it locked up.

Posted this earlier today, but it seems most apropos to yours. I am very concerned.

I was at an RCC meeting last night and informed that the Dems have 26,000 lawyers with a strategy to file lawsuits in nearly every county in the US, and tie-up the vote counting as much as they possibly can. We're talking near civil war proportions stuff here folks.

The use of provisional ballots will be a key component to create an "every vote counts" strategy to basically destroy the integrity of the voting process.

Vote. Make sure your friends and family vote. And be on guard. It's going to be a bumpy ride.

These polls are killing me. I swear, I have spent FAR too much time here at FR and at the electoral college sites. Not wringing my hands, as of yet. But feeling woozy.

I even told my hubby that I saw a vision of John Edwards in Kerry's right ear, last night. I'm losing it, people. HELLLLP

I saw somewhere else -- can't remember if it was another thread here or another board -- someone from NH stating that there is a LOT of radio advertising going on in NH.

I heard on this morning's news that Bush will be in West Palm Beach on Saturday and I was hoping to see him. Does anyone know where I can find out if this is true?

In light of the vote fraud effort, this is going to be one helluva ride....



It really is too bad that it is life and death struggle. Otherwise, it would be really interesting to watch. Everyone says it is the most bitter ever, but there have been some bruisers in the 19th century. There just weren't so many ways to screw it up.

Then we simply must pray for a 10 point victory.... way above any margin of error. GWB needs a huge victory to nip this in the bud.

Newt is so smart. What a loss to us when he resigned. Thanks for that info!

IF IT ISNT CLOSE, THEY CANT CHEAT.

The Dems are doing this 'vote intimidation' cr*p in order to get a freer and for vote fraud. They had felons signing up voters (illegal), and had felons on the rolls in places where it is illegal.

btw, Cheney's daughter.
Lynn Cheney: "This is not a good man."
Liz Edwards: "indicates shame ... sad state of affairs."

Fox ...
Mort: Dems are doing a double-edged sword "homophobic"... ie, get homopobes to second guess the prez
Barnes: Dems are using this as a response to the FMA.
John Edwards: "It's Fair Game"

I hope so ... you know what worries me? The stock market - it's a very accurate read on Kerry's position ... it goes up and down in miror to Kerry's fortune. And it now fell under 10,000 for the first time since August.

I actually find the Rasmussen polls reassuring, although Florida should be better for Bush.
