Q-Poll: Obama’s Lead Narrows in Florida
With six days to go before the presidential election, a new poll shows Republican Sen. John McCain moving closer to Democrat Barack Obama in Florida, but still trailing substantially in two other key states, Ohio and Pennsylvania.The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute says Obama leads McCain in Florida 47 percent to 45 percent; Quinnipiac last week had Obama leading 48 percent to 44 percent.
The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.6 percentage points.
The poll also has Obama up 51-42 percent in Ohio, compared to last week’s 52-38 lead in that state.
In Pennsylvania, Obama is ahead 53-41 percent, compared to 53-40 percent last week.
No one has been elected President since 1960 without taking two of these three largest swing states in the Electoral College.
