That translates into a difference of one person, given the sample size.

They just worried me. 1 point is a big difference in a close election. And out of all the national polls out today, ABC is the most credible so I couldn't bear a 1 point advantage for Romney.

All your op had in it was a breathless announcement that there was a new poll. I wasted my time opening your op only to find it had nothing in it. Sure go ahead and post polls if you want but please don't waste our time with empty ones.
