Pew Research reports:
Mitt Romney no longer trails Barack Obama in the Pew Research Center’s presidential election polling. By about three-to-one, voters say Romney did a better job than Obama in the Oct. 3 debate, and the Republican is now better regarded on most personal dimensions and on most issues than he was in September. Romney is seen as the candidate who has new ideas and is viewed as better able than Obama to improve the jobs situation and reduce the budget deficit.
Left-wing Talking Points Memo
notices something rather shocking in the Pew poll:
Obama’s 18-point lead with women shown in Pew’s previous poll is also gone, with the two candidates now tied among female voters.
The Houston Chronicle has a reminder on who was the most
accurate pollsters in 2008:
The Pew Research Center and Rasmussen Reports were the most accurate in predicting the results of the 2008 election, according to a new analysis by Fordham University political scientist Costas Panagopoulos.
Just a reminder to everyone.
