I live in Lake County and I can see Romney winning by two or three percent, it's full of those working class to upper-middle class whites and only around four percent minority.

We usually always track the statewide average within one or two percent.

Interesting to see if  Lake county deviates from the statewide total.

You have to pay Dave to get town results.  I have before, but I don't want to renew my membership to check one thing.

Obama won the New Hampshire towns in 2008 52/53-47/46.  He won Lake County 49.45-48.62.


Those polled in Epping said they voted 47-40 Obama in 2008 (6% did not vote in 2008).  Those polled in Milford said they voted 55-38 Obama (3% did not vote in 2008).  Lake County wasn't asked that question for some odd reason.

Oh right, I saw Lake County and assumed the New Hampshire numbers were from counties as well. Didn't really pay attention. My bad.

This points to both OH and NH being very close, if I read it right, though there is of course the MOE.  About the best news Romney's gotten today.

I don't know how diverse those areas are, but it seems strange you'd have a high MOE like that in these small, focused areas to include towns. And what a day of polling for Obama-- even Gallup, after a hiatus, moved hard to Obama. This strange thing is the best on the day by far for Romney, including Gallup.

The folks at Suffolk are either going to look like idiots or geniuses tomorrow.  Same with the folks at PPP.

I'll bet Suffolk. They have early vote data on their side. PPP has to have Independents break 80/20 to validate some of those early vote findings.

I don't even know who this 'Duncan' is, and Stewart Alexander is unlikely to get 1% of the vote in any county.

Duncan is on the ballot just in Ohio, he was a write in only candidate in 2008.  He supports a lot of infrastructure improvements, strong national defense and is pro-life. I'm not sure who he'd be appealing to.  I'm suspicious of his large vote, and that he beat out my man Johnson.

Lake County, Ohio - Romney +4.  Actual result  - Romney +2.  Not too bad.  Duncan received 0.23%, though, nowhere near 4%.  Decent job polling, but a terrible bellwether.

Milford, NH - Romney +5.  Actual result - Obama +2.  Actual statewide result - Obama +6.  Poll fail.  Off a bit as a bellwether, too.

Epping, NH -  Romney +2.  Actual result - Obama +3.  Poll fail, though at least within the margin of error.  One point closer to being a good bellwether.
