Per DRUDGE: Romney internals--+1 in OH, tied in WI and PA!

Mitt Romney is ahead by a single percentage point in Ohio, according to internal polling data provided to MailOnline by a Republican party source.

Internal campaign polling completed last night by campaign pollster Neil Newhouse has Romney three points up in New Hampshire, two points up in Iowa and dead level in Wisconsin and - most startlingly - Pennsylvania.

Here are the scenarios:
Romney takes all the McCain 2008 states, plus NC VA FL IN CO. This yields 257 EVs. Then only one of the following must be won for a Romney victory:
1. OH(18) -or-
2. PA(20) -or-
3. MI(16) -or-
4. MN(10) + [NH(4) or IA(6) or NV(6)] -or-
5. WI(10) + [NH(4) or IA(6) or NV(6)] -or-
6. NV(6) + IA(6) (the tie scenario).

Again you’re not making any sense that Barone refuses to pick a winner when he’s written that he predicts Romney just yesterday or Saturday.

ON NOV. 7TH MORNING RETURNS TO AMERICA: IN THE END, RIGHT TRIUMPHS

VICE PRESIDENT RYAN

[americas.best.days...]

I have felt for a long time that there is something up with
all the emphasis on early voting. When i drove by BOE in
akron friday,lines out the door,all obamma voters. I have a
feeling they are able to vote multiple times there. If they
can get across town, why not to local-closer-precint?

Perhaps winning ‘handily’ (Barone’s term) will overcome the
fraud here in ohio. I’m hopeful and anticipating a Romney
win and i WILL enjoy it, but i’m pissed about being”disen-
franchised” by cheating.

[yield 2 the right]

I thought FR-Peers are not allowed to pay any attention to any polls, only the ballot box results.

[Gulf War One]

As I recall, campaign (Rove) leaked those 2004 numbers on election day to calm those who believed the media fake exit polls.

The moral here is not to believe any “exit poll” numbers you hear from the media this time either.

[LongWayHome]

Good point. I remember the Kerry people thinking this thing was over at 4 in the afternoon cause of those false exit polls.

[xkaydet65]

You’re welcome.

[johncocktoasten]

This is the ultimate “read between the lines” statement. He released electorate composition for October, which predicted dead on the Obama 2008 margin of victory, showing Republican +5.8 right now. Rasmussen will be able to say he hit the number in Voter ID while the tracking poll misses. I’m going to file this under the “subtle ways to help Romney without looking like it” file. Just like the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare, Rasmussen knows that his poll is followed heavily by R’s and Conservative and reviled by liberals. Close polls mean we ALL show up.

[Political Junkie Too]

That's what my model of Rasmussen polls shows. If I add a variable bias adjustment between 0% and 2.5%, it's worth 30 Electoral Votes for Romney.

No one can answer that question but the GOP for once have many poll watchers where the dims need to cheat and phone aps are on millions of cell phones waiting to catch cheating. Will the dims cheat... yes they always have... can they do it enough to affect the outcome? If they do... then our elections and our government are nothing but a sham.

Has anyone seen the latest Drudge Report that there was a Russian Nuclear Attack sub detected 200 miles of the east coast of the USA ?

[LibLieSlayer]

Barone is saying that the polling shows it is tight... if you listen to his entire critique... he will explain why he is still confident in his projections of a Romney win.

If God answers prayers, then, well.. I don’t think the other side is big into prayer.

[CincyRichieRich]

BS

Why, why, why would Romney release internal polls? What advantage would be gained. Instead, it is meant to get 0bummer voters out.

Romney camp is too savvy and is keeping cards close to vest.

Just because it is in print does not make it true.

[sergeantdave]

Yep, a Romney aide is going to call the UK commies at the Daily Mail and release internal polling numbers. Sure.........

This is crap from some old English fart who’s on his 10th pint of ale.

[LS]

First, if they are legit, then Romney’s internal polls show what Obama’s show, and Obama would know that he’s in deep trouble. The way I read this is a classic intelligence sting operation. You feed the enemy answers you know he knows to prep him for the phoney one you want to feed him, in this case, I think it’s NV and I think they are hoping O will back off the effort there letting Romney squeak that state out as well.

[ez]

I believe this. Romney has been asking for EVERY VOTE at his stump speeches today. He knows he needs big turnout. I just think he’ll get it.
