PA Tracking Poll.: Undecideds breaking towards Clinton
Newsmax/Zogby Tracking: Hillary's Pa. Lead Growing

Friday, April 18, 2008 11:18 PM Inch by inch, New York�s Hillary Clinton is building a lead over rival Barack Obama of Illinois leading up to Tuesday�s presidential primary in Pennsylvania, a key late contest on the road to determine who will win the party�s nomination, the latest Newsmax/Zogby daily tracking poll shows.

She now leads with 47% support, compared to 42% for Obama, just four days before the polls open. The two-day tracking survey, which was conducted April 17-18, 2008, showed that 11% were either undecided or supported someone else. This is the first of the tracking polls to be conducted entirely after the fiery Clinton-Obama debate Wednesday night.

On Thursday, Clinton led 47% to 43%, and on Wednesday by 45% to 44%.

Pollster John Zogby: �Undecideds are down to 8% and they have slowly begun to break for Clinton. Obama slipped in the one-day sample to only 40%. His lead in the eastern part of the state is still in double-digits but slipping, and his huge advantage among young voters is narrowing a bit. Clinton has a 39-point lead among Catholics and a 19 point lead among whites. She continues to get higher marks on "understanding Pennsylvania" and "handling the economy."

32. A bullshit headline being an hour old, makes it post worthy?
Edited on Sat Apr-19-08 02:26 AM by FrenchieCat
They are probably polling Republicans.

or using a Zogby push poll that is paid for and gives them what they want.

This shit is propaganda, and you brought it here because of it's youth.

What would we do without you? :shrug:

These are the kind of threads that us the hide feature on.
I don't want to see the propanganda everytime I look at this forum.

11. Read this:
This latest Newsmax/Zogby two-day tracking poll shows Clinton had a good day in central Pennsylvania, where she has moved ahead of Obama by 20 points, a significant improvement over earlier polling. In western Pennsylvania, she continues to enjoy a solid lead, while Obama continues to enjoy a double-digit lead in eastern Pennsylvania, including Philadelphia.

22. "Undecideds" always break for her, because they're the "low-information" folks
and the tuned-out. If you are undecided at this point in the race, you're pretty much a fucking moron.

29. there may be an "X factor" at work
I don't know about the rest of the state, but the weather in the Philadelphia area was beautiful on Thursday and Friday. That may have affected the composition of the poll respondents.

On the other hand, that may just be wishful thinking.
