Fordel Obama
Erik J. Helgesen
Democrat Barack Obama, seeking a history-making victory in a
presidential campaign that has captivated the country as few others
ever have, maintained a clear advantage over Republican John McCain
yesterday as the two made final appeals in battleground states and
readied massive get-out-the-vote operations in advance of today's
balloting.
State and national polls released yesterday underscored the steep hill
McCain must climb in the final hours to reach the 270 electoral votes
needed to win the White House.
The Washington Post-ABC News tracking poll showed Obama leading
by nine percentage points - 53 percent to 44 percent. That is slightly
narrower than the 11-point lead Obama held the day before, but in
general, Obama's advantage has held steady for the past several weeks.
Some other national polls also showed a small tightening in the margin
between Obama and McCain. Obama's lead varies from five points to
11 points in about a dozen national polls released yesterday. But in
almost every case, the Democratic nominee had a clear lead and at
least 50 percent support, with a small percentage of the electorate
undecided. That means McCain not only has to win virtually all the
undecided voters but also peel away some voters who currently say
they support Obama.

Ved valget i 2004 vant Bush med ca. 2,5% over Kerry (50,7 - 48,2). Da
viste RealClearPolitics' snitt av meningsm�linger at Bush ville vinne
med ca. 1,5% (50 - 48,5). De traff rimelig bra! Nesten alle m�linger
(som RCP bygger p�) hadde Bush som vinner.

Ved �rets valg er det /ingen/ meningsm�linger som har McCain som
vinner! Og RealClearPolitics' snitt av m�linger antyder at Obama kan
vinne stort. Det gjenst�r � se om de treffer like godt denne gangen.
