AFL spokesperson Steve Smith says the union federation will release polling numbers later this morning that show jumps in those three states among gun owners, veterans, and retirees. Here's an advance look:
Among union gun owners, it's now 58-30 Obama, up from 48-41 in early September, a 21 point jump.
Among veterans we're at 58-32, up from 49-41 in early September, an 18 point jump.
And among retirees, we're now at 59-31, up from 52-37, a 14 point improvement, nearly double the margin.
In Ohio, Obama now has a 29-point advantage (61%-32%) over McCain among union members, an improvement of 16 points since August.
In Pennsylvania, Obama's support has risen 22 points to a 63%-27% advantage.
In Michigan, Obama now holds a commanding 68%-23% lead among union members, up 26 points.
