Thursday - October 9, 2008:
Obama: 48% (+1)
McCain: 44% (-1)
Conducted Oct. 6-8, 2008, 400 LV each day
Obama is winning 86% of the Democratic Party support and McCain is winning 87% of the Republican Party support – but Obama has the edge among independent voters. He leads McCain among independents, 48 to 35%, which represents a gain for Obama. This could be significant for Obama if it holds up through Election Day, because independents represent 26% of the national electorate.
lol. The term "lol" really does sum things up nicely.
