Daily Swing State Tracking Poll
Friday, September 28, 2012
The full Swing State tracking update offers Rasmussen Reader subscribers a combined view of the results from 11 key states won by President Obama in 2008 and thought to be competitive in 2012. The states collectively hold 146 Electoral College votes and include Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.
In the 11 swing states, the president and Mitt Romney are tied with 46% support each. Four percent (4%) are not sure, and three percent (3%) are undecided.
The candidates have been tied or in a near tie every day but one for the past three weeks.
In 2008, Obama won these states by a combined margin of 53% to 46%, virtually identical to his national margin.
When "leaners" are factored in, Romney leads the president 48% to 47%. Leaners are those who are initially uncommitted to the two leading candidates but lean towards one of them when asked a follow-up question.
Nationally, the race remains a toss-up in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.
