Gallup Daily: McCain-Obama Contest Remains Tight

Registered voters show narrow margin in favor of McCain, 47% to 45%USA Election 2008 Gallup Daily Americas Northern America PRINCETON, NJ -- The latest Gallup Poll Daily tracking update shows 47% of registered voters preferring John McCain and 45% Barack Obama when asked whom they would vote for if the presidential election were held today.



The latest results, based on Sept. 11-13 interviewing, are the same as Saturday's report. McCain had led by as many as five percentage points in recent days, but the margin has narrowed to a statistical tie in each of the last three reports. The race has been competitive throughout the campaign, with neither candidate able to sustain a sizeable lead. Obama has held the largest lead for either candidate at nine points, but only for one day. (To view the complete trend since March 7, 2008, click here.) -- Jeff Jones
