National Daily Tracking Average: Obama Back to (A Tiny) Lead
Posted Sep 16, 2008 at 2:54 PM by Maurice Berger
Our averaging of the three daily tracking polls--Hotline/FD, Rasmussen, and Gallup--today puts Obama back into the lead, by an insignificant 0.7%. The latter two polls actually continue to report a lead for McCain (+1%), but Hotline calls it +4 Obama. It's worth noting that Hotline has proven the most erratic of the three pollsters, trading leads on an almost day to day basis. Is the momentum turning every so slightly back to the Democrat? PollTrack's averaging of periodic and daily national polls continues to give McCain a small lead: +1.3%. Stay tuned for tomorrow's numbers, especially for Rasmussen and Gallup.
