Today's Rasmussen rolling poll has Kerry, Bush tied at 45%
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/Presidential_Tracking_Poll.htm

Wednesday April 28, 2004--The latest Rasmussen Reports Presidential Tracking Poll shows President George W. Bush with 45% of the vote and Senator John F. Kerry with 45%.

President Bush has led or been tied for eight straight days. However, he no longer holds the three points plus edge he had maintained over the past three days. Neither candidate has held such a lead for four consecutive days.

At 3:00 p.m. today, we will release updated ratings for the President's handling of the economy and the situation in Iraq.

2. Isn't this a tracking poll?
The daily samples must be really all over the place. To go from Bush 47-Kerry 44 to a 45-45 tie, Kerry had to have won the April 27th sampling by a pretty good margin: 47-41.

I don't get it.

3. Yes, it is a 3-day rolling poll of 1500 Likely Voters with a 3% MOE.

4. Or, I suppose...
...an unusually pro-Bush sampling from April 24th was phased out.

Whatevah.

5. Bush has also fallen back in Pennsylvania
IN the most recent poll, and now Kerry and BUsh are dea even at 42 percent in that state, which has been leaning towards Bush since the first week in March. Oddly enough Kerry has either increase in the polls or stayed even in them in PA, while Nader has picked up in the polls in PA. POlitical pundits have been indicating that eventually some signs of Bush losses being to Nader would occur. I guess this is one of those cases.
