FINAL CBS/NYT times poll-Obama 51%-Romney-49%

I saw this on a Canadian newscast anchored by Donna Friesen, formerly of NBC News, now of Global TV, on her program entitled Global National which airs at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time daily.

She had embargoed CBS/NYT data that showed Obama at 50.6% and Romney at 48.5% and aired this at the top of her newscast before saying that other polls have it closer.

Expect a midnight or 7 a.m. release of this poll to coincide with CBS News This Morning.

Awesome news if President Obama is at 51%!! Epic!!

ride it as far as as it would take me--don't stop for nothing or no one--keep right on riding through town after town all day. Cause it ain't gonna do him a lick of good to climb down from that bus and say anything to anybody. If Obama is at 51% he is about to get his butt kicked.

Had Bush +2 final poll. In 2008 they overestimated Obama by 2 points, with a final margin of Obama +9.
