Barack Obama is holding onto a one point lead in Colorado, down from four in PPP's previous two polls of the state.
Colorado continues a trend PPP has found in several battleground states this week of John McCain gaining support from white voters since the two party conventions. Where he led by just two points with that demographic in August, it is now six.
Obama is winning overall in the state because of his overwhelming support from the state's growing Hispanic electorate, with which he has a 58-34 advantage. The traditionally red states of Virginia and Colorado are toss ups this year because of changing demographics in their voting populations- whether they've changed enough to flip this year could determine who our next President is.
Having the Democratic convention in Denver does not seem to have helped Obama's prospects. Only 15% of voters in the state say it affected their votes one way or the other, and within that group 9% said it made them less likely to support Obama while just 6% said it made them more likely to support him.

There are a lot of old hippies and stupid college kids now living in the beautiful state of Colorado.
Lots of trash from Cali flooding Colorado.
Te old movie, “Granola” with Martin Mull, had the Marin County family heading for Denver at movie’s end.
I'm pretty sure Obammie has the illegal alien vote locked up.
Just damn! WORK hard Colorado pubs...MUSTER all you have...walk the precincts, drag if you must those who were NOT going to vote to the polls, WORK, WORK, WORK!! FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT for AMERICA!!!
And, we have had a bunch of liberal Californians move here and try and ruin the state - I miss what Colorado used to be.
And one former lying college professor who claims to be a native American.....or did he move?
Trending the right way, but CO needs lots of work.
Things are moving in the right direction in Colorado. As the RAT convention (and all the glowing press reports on the local news that accompanied it), fades from memory, I think we will see Colorado continue to drift back home to the GOP.

RV or LV?
I’ll happily trade CO for MI and PA.
I hear ya - from Colorado Springs.
Denver and Boulder voters should remember to vote on Wednesday, November 5.

But illegal immigrants are hard-working, mostly conservatives, family people with strong religious values...
And, the Media/Democrats have made them “victims.” And “victims” vote for Democrats.
It could, but I think the race will be decided long before CO votes close.
Fauxbama ABSOLUTELY MUST WIN PA, MI and WI.. he may be able to make up WI, with IA, and a proportion of votes out that state out west that divies them proportionally.... But He cannot make up MI or PA, and frankly I see no way Fauxbama will carry all 3 of those states, in fact, I think at best he’s going to get one.
Now, IF, Fauxbama carries all 3 of those, then CO could be the focus election night, but I think the race will be all over long before it gets to that point.
