Bush Holds Narrow Ohio Lead
April 4, 2004
http://www.dispatch.com/http://www.onnnews.com/story.php?record=29671President Bush leads challenger John Kerry by
only one percentage point in a poll published in The Columbus Dispatch.
Bush had 46% to 45% for Kerry with ten percent undecided. That's if the election features only the Republican incumbent against the Democratic challenger.
With consumer-advocate Ralph Nader in the race, Bush leads Kerry 45 percent to 43 percent, with Nader getting three percent and nine percent undecided.

Nader must submit valid signatures from at least 5,000 registered Ohio voters by August 19th to qualify for the statewide ballot.
The poll has a margin of error of two percentage points. (implies a sample size of about 2400 or so) Ohio is expected to be a battleground state in a race whose key issues include jobs and the economy. No Republican has been elected
president without winning Ohio.
Vorlon Note!I know nothing about the validity, or not, of this poll yet.
It is
about the same as the Terrance group poll showing Bush +4.7, other than that.. nothing to report...
