Poll: Romney up 3 in Ohio, best showing since June

By Justin Sink - 09/05/12 08:25 PM ET

Mitt Romney has opened a 3-point lead in the pivotal swing state of Ohio, according to a new poll released Wednesday — the Republican nominee's best showing since June.

The Republican ticket garnered support of 47 percent of those surveyed, versus 43 percent for Democrats, according to a poll released by Gravis Marketing. President Obama has led consistently in the polls since June, although that lead has been usually within the margin of error.

Meanwhile, 10 percent of voters remain unsure in the pivotal contest, or say they would back a third-party candidate.

I am glad he is doing well in Ohio. He will win Ohio. I am a little worried about Florida.

Agree.

The 0bamas are already shopping for a retirement home in Hawaii. They should get busy packing any day now.

On top of that, I’ve seen MSM articles that are critical of “the messiah.” And even more that damn him with faint praise. Yes, the thrill is gone.

... and I’ve been worried about the pardons since day one. Remember the Clinton pardons? Zippy will make them seem acceptable by comparison.

What was the D/R/I mix in Ohio in 2010, 2008 and 2004?

I'm afraid I don't have that information. However if as I have seen in different articles the country is trending Republican as far as vote registration, then it may be safe to assume Ohio has similarly trended that way. But without a baseline from prior years it is impossible to say if these reported demographics are accurate.

Isn’t 47-43 = 4?

Depends on the rounding... E.g. 46.6 (rounds to 47) minus 43.4 (rounds to 43) equals 3.2 (rounded to 3 in the final report). As you see, it's easy to be off a bit when you take this into account. It can get even closer... using rounding, the actual number could be 3.0000001 and yet still seem to be 4.

I don't know for CERTAIN, but this is my guess, heh.
