One last poll: Quinnipiac reports Obama with 10-point lead
By Alex Roarty, PolitickerPA.com ReporterBarack Obama is maintaining his comfortable double-digit lead over John McCain, 52 percent to 42 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University Poll released Monday morning.
That's a 2-point reduction for the Democratic presidential nominee from the same poll taken last week, mirroring a trend that shows the Democratic presidential nominee's lead in the Keystone State dwindling but still above the margin for error.
The poll surveyed 1,493 voters from Oct. 27 to Nov. 2 and has a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points.
"In the end, Sen. John McCain's troops in central Pennsylvania, led by veterans, disaffected Hillary Clinton supporters and God and gun clingers, will be swept over by a wave of young black urban new voters, giving Sen. Obama the Keystone State," said Clay Richards, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
