Obama maintains a 10-point lead in the state, poll shows
Monday, November 03, 2008
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

One day before the election, Democrat Barack Obama holds a 10-point lead over Republican John McCain in the presidential race among likely voters in Pennsylvania, according to the latest Quinnipiac University poll released this morning.
"The race has narrowed somewhat," said Clay F. Richards, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. "Obama led by 15 points two weeks ago," but the difference "is not enough to change to outcome."

Mr. Obama leads, 52-42 percent, in Pennsylvania. He also holds a lead in Ohio, 50-43 percent, and in Florida, 47-45 percent, but the race in the Sunshine State is too close to call. Quinnipiac University polls are conducted simultaneously in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, three so-called swing states. No candidate since 1960 has been elected president without carrying two of the three states.

In Pennsylvania, Mr. Obama holds a 49-42 lead among Catholic voters, but the vote with Mr. McCain is split among white voters, 47-47.

Mr. Obama holds a 53-44 percent edge in Allegheny County. He also commands a 50-42 edge in the critical, populous suburbs of Philadelphia.

1. Matt Effing Lauer said that Ohio was tied and Pennsylvania was a toss up at this point...
Mason Dixon again.

What the hell is up with these people? Must want ratings.
