The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 49% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns the vote from 47%. One percent (1%) prefers some other candidate, and another two percent (2%) remain undecided. See daily tracking history.
Fifty-one percent (51%) of voters have a favorable opinion of Romney and 48% say the same of Obama.

Can’t think of a better example of biased media. In Katrina the dem governor in La. screwed her state and pinned it on Bush. So the media got people to hate Bush.
Now the storm just happened, Obama hasn’t done a damn thing and certainly nothing out of the ordinary. And Obama is already getting credit? For what? Nature?
LOL... You seem much more familiar with the blissful dream world of Valium.
You need to chill out and stop attacking people who have an opinion other than your own. Besides, it’s a violation of FR rules. Calm down.
Are you trying to be an asshole? This overhyped thunderstorm, as you call it, covers an area over 900 miles wide and has left 3 million people without power. It has caused 100’s of millions of dollars worth of damage.
Shut your yap if you don’t have anything intelligent to contribute.
Just checked out some of your posting history. Looks to me like you’re a troll. All you do is go on threads predicting an obama win and monaing doom and gloom. Why don’t you find some place else to play? We don’t need your constant negativity here. We’re too busy winning this election to put up with your nonsense.
Go take another hit of your happy sauce. There’s nothing to see here. Romney’s going to win MA and CA.
I’m calm.... I have no investment in the outcome of this election.
I called this election after the second debate.
None of us know what’s going to happen next week. The final verdict on this President’s fate will be rendered by our fellow Americans.
Answer me this. Name one incumbent who was polling at 47% with a week to go and went on to win.
There is not one. But I’ll await your reply.
Here in Red Hampshire; I usually lose power when a squirrel farts...much to my shock and surprise; I didn't lose power at all. The sun has been in and out; temps are in the sixties. It is drying out pretty fast...
“Good news, the good 0bama day rolled off.”
I don’t follow. Until a day ago it has been 50-47 for Romney. Now it is 49-47 for two days. What exactly rolled off?
Another unfulfilled election promise. He told people the sea levels were going to retreat once he was elected. So if he had done what he promised NYC subway system would have been safe. Blame it on Mame Obama.
;-)
Thos pau544 poater I’ve never seen a positive post regarding tge elcetion. As faras a few of the other people popping up in this thread I’ve never seen them in the Ras thread before and its curious. They post like WE are the ones two ppints behind. If people are so “concerned” they should go work for the GOTV effort. Volunteer to work handing out material or whatever. Its just a shame we get contant shit from all media imcludong from entertainers and we ha e to get the negative stuff here too in a poll thread that is pretty good news six days from the election.
From the just released NPR poll. Note the REPUBLICAN pollster involved.
But Democratic pollster Stanley Greenberg and Republican pollster Whit Ayres found that Obama leads by 4 points in the 12 battleground states that appear ready to pick the winner for the rest of the country next Tuesday. And they suggest that Romney's post-debate surge has "stalled."
How do you know a poster is a woman or a man? Please share your method of discernment with the rest of us.
There are more ways than one to skew a poll. NPR had +4%D sample, ie oversampling Democrats, but not as much as some other polls. But the poll also oversampled women:
54% women/46% men. That will skew the results.
Can anyone tell me if there ever has been such a skewed gender participation in any national election since women got the right to vote? I would be v..e..r..y surprised if that were the case.
Obama is a cold fish who is incapable of exuding genuine compassion for anyone. If he’s thinking to himself “let me act really Presidential and milk this for all it’s worth”, people will be able to read him like a book.
And what makes everyone think that Romney and Ryan won’t be arriving at the scene to survey the damage and offer assistance to hurricane victims? Romney actually has a personal history of helping people, and doing so out of genuine caring. R&R also both look better in flak jackets!
Maybe, but I just don’t buy the idea that all these pollsters are destroying their reputation by reporting something that doesn’t exist. In 2008 was the same story. All the polls were wrong... until they were right. I believe there are a lot of pollsters who have their reputations at stake and are reporting reality, whether we like it or not.
It's a nothingburger. 4 years ago, Ike came home twice as strong in the Heartland, is still no. 2 all-time, killed 86 people, turned out the lights in the Mississippi & Ohio Valleys for weeks, and received a fraction of this insipid blathering coverage.
Didn't stir any love for McCrisis...
