ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - A new statewide poll commissioned by The Albuquerque Journal shows President Barack Obama with a relatively small lead over Republican challenger Mitt Romney and 8% of voters still undecided.
The poll suggests that New Mexico's presidential race may be more competitive than national pundits and polls have previously suggested.

But, Obama’s already won - Politico said so!
Interesting.....I wonder what the internals are?
WTH! These polls make NO sense. There are more Republican voters than ever, yet we’re still behind. New Mexico is a battleground state and we’re still behind. Something’s fishy

I think polling is skewed. These day, people have cell phones as their only phone line.

I think the bigger point is, New Mexico wasn't expected by most pundits and analysts to be a battleground state... and yet, if these numbers are accurate, it is.
I have a sister in law who is a retired teacher from NM told me last night during a conversation that her boyfriend and a few folk she knows are literally disgusted with the black messiah....DON’T BELIEVE THE POLLS...Just go out and vote and take many folk with you! THIS RACE IS OURS TO LOSE!!
This is actually GOOD news - neither campaign considered New Mexico "in play" this year, yet the race appears to be tightening up rapidly.
Wow, what a day.
Polling everywhere.
Another poll, another Maalox.
With that all Latin all-the-time DNC convention it’s no wonder.
I thought NM was solidly DIM last time around. Thank you for actually providing even the smallest bit of context and data to quell the "sky is falling crowd".
Please someone just put me asleep until the 9 PM Nov 6. The polls are incredibly inconsistent and laden with methodological variability. You can see how over the next 8 weeks the internet and information overload is going to give the GOP universe a collective ulcer.
Willard taking NM is unlikely because of Gary Johnson.
I knew this when he announced he was opening new campaign offices in NM. Everyone thought it was because NM was a foregone Obama state. But, if it is an Obama state, why spend resources there. They know they are in trouble in NM.
