We're all tied up nationally. Obama up from a 1 point Post-Denver deficit.

Also, remember that >2% of the country's population was without power for most of the poll, in areas that voted almost unanimously for Obama in 2008.

I note on their methodology that this poll has bi-lingual interviewers for Spanish speakers, and they cover cell and land line. So that's good

Indeed. National polling isn't worth much right now.

While I do think Obama loses if Romney wins the PV by 1 point or more, I think he has the EV advantage in a tied race.....

The same was thought about Gore. The opposite happened.

That race moved pretty fast towards the end, didn't it? I am sure if there is a lot of change from current polling, the changes would be different across states. Currently, Obama does seem to have an advantage based on polling in Ohio, Nevada, Iowa and Wisconsin. All those states could be slightly Democratic with a tied PV.

To be fair, Gore obviously would have won Florida if all of the votes were counted.

LMFAO. If every ballot was counted the way Gore did, perhaps. If that isn't the biggest liberal whopper. There have been a number of independent analyses that indicate otherwise.

I have to say, the Fox News poll tends to ask some interesting questions. It's worth digging through if you have the time.

Not sure about that, but far more importantly: If every legitimate voter had been allowed to vote.
