Both Kerry, Edwards, lead Bush in Granite State
Here's the link-http://www.thechamplainchannel.com/wnne/2858932/detail.html

A new poll shows President George W. Bush's approval ratings in New Hampshire have fallen to their lowest levels since his election.

In a University of New Hampshire Granite State Poll conducted this week, 47 percent of New Hampshire adults said they approve of the job Bush is doing as president, 48 percent disapprove and 5 percent are neutral. That's down from a high of 71 percent in April and down 9 percentage points since October.

Looking ahead to the November election, 38 percent of likely voters said they would vote for Bush, and 53 percent said they would vote for Democrat John Kerry. In a matchup with Democrat John Edwards, 51 percent said they would vote for Edwards and 37 percent said they would vote for Bush.

Pollster Andrew Smith said Bush is in a tough spot, but the large number of Republicans in the state should pull his approval ratings up as the election approaches.

I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that this is the first poll to show the Democrats not only beating Bush in a red state, but having them outside the margin of error. And it is both of our leading candidates!

1. Election Day is the poll that counts....
And then we still have to contend with Diebold and ES&S and those other little black boxes.
