Poll Shows Slight McCain Advantage
Two polls show the presidential race in a dead heat, but one of those show Republican John McCain with an advantage over Barack Obama for the first time since June. A Rasmussen poll released Monday showed the race for the White House is tied at 44 percent for Obama and McCain. However, among “leaners,” McCain leads 47-46 percent. A Gallup poll released Sunday showed Obama with a one point lead, 45 percent to 44 percent. Both polls surveyed about 1,000 voters and have a two percent margin of error.
