If Romney is ahead nationally by 7, Obama will win fewer than 10 states. State polls usually lag by a week or more.
Mitt has done his job.
Now, we have to do ours. I agree, polls are crap. GOTV GOTV GOTV.
Let’s get ‘er done. We can cheer November 7.
Are these the numbers AFTER the 2nd debate or BEFORE the debate..I think usually those numbers don’t come in til Friday right(At least thats what Rasmussen always says) but WOW..Romney went up ANOTHER point from yesterday VERY VERY good news!!
It includes one day post-debate.
Attn. all Libyan camel herders: run & hide now!
Only 1 day after the 2nd debate are in these results.
I just did a DUmp Check and looked at their “Breaking News” & “General Discussion” Forums and there is NO mention of this!
So either they haven’t got the news yet, or there’s been a GALLUP BLACKOUT to prevent suicides!
Hmm will be interesting to see which Obama shows up to the third debate and if it will even matter.
Thanks so much for letting me know..and Iowegian too..you both responded at the same time, appreciate it
we need troll accounts to dump this info into DUmmy sites.
Ohio has mirrored within 1 to 2 points of national voting for 30 years. If it’s 7 points Romney, Ohio is won. (By 30 year trends anyway)
It means last Wednesday’s was removed and yesterday’s was added. That also means that yesterday’s polling was better for Romney than last Wednesday’s (before the Robin and Joker debate). That is the only way that the average could go higher.
BO’s best chance is to cancel the last debate and declare an emergency. Bombs away on Iran?
Just going to go vote.
LOL! Love it!
True, but if a presidential candidate wins the national popular vote by 7 points, he will also win the Electoral College handily. It is unrealistic to expect otherwise. In 2000 Al Gore won popular vote by less than half a percentage point and lost the electoral college 271-266 but that is a very rare event. A seven point popular vote margin, should it hold up to Election Day, will yield an landslide electoral victory and you can take that to the bank.
I'd say its a 7-point-O on the Romney Scale!
There was a reason not to believe them before as their models were assuming a turnout that was even more democrat than 2008. Their reputations are on the line now, so their models are becoming a bit more reasonable.
Yep. It’s kind of sad that we have to explain this to Freepers.
