You-Gov Poll: Ryan Pick Has Little Impact On The Voters Thus Far

For what it's worth:

(Week of 8/11/2012) So far, Mitt Romney’s announcement that Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan will be his vice-presidential running mate has helped the Republican presidential candidate little in his contest against President Barack Obama: in last week’s Economist/YouGov Poll, Romney and the incumbent were a point apart as the choice of registered voters. This week the President leads Romney by three points, 47% to 44%.

That's because PPP has obama up by 3 and RAS has him up by 1.If not for RAs It would be leaning Democrat Instead of barely
democrat.

which is no change from their previous Ohio poll, but it may be closer than some other recent Ohio polls, so maybe that is why??
