Barack Obama has jumped far ahead of John McCain in Washington, but most voters there don’t want Hillary Clinton as his running mate, a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey has found.
Obama who led McCain 51% to 40% a month ago has opened up an 18% lead in the state. Fifty-three percent (53%) of likely Washington voters now support the Democrat as opposed to 35% who back his Republican opponent.
Five percent (5%) favor a third-party candidate, and 7% are undecided.

Washington, with 11 Electoral College votes, has gone Democratic in every presidential election since 1988 and John Kerry carried the state over President Bush 53% to 46% in 2004.
