Obama Leading North Dakota by 3 Points in Aug 23-27 Poll

[usregimechange]

A poll conducted from August 23-27 by DFM Research of 400 likely voters shows Obama leading 43% to 40% with 5% Other and 12% Unsure (margin of error +/- 5%).

This is the first ND Poll since February showing Obama Leading in North Dakota. (Real Clear Politics has McCain up +3, +1, and +6 in the last 3 polls and Obama up +4 in February)

I spoke with Dean Mitchell of DFM Research Today and he stated that the poll was conducted during the DNC Convention with polling ending the day prior to Obama's speech.

5. North Dakota does have two Democratic Senators:

Conrad and Dorgan.

They are poised to make a lot of money from wind energy.

They are also the first place to let a few farmers try growing industrial hemp.

This might be possible.
