SUSA Virginia Poll: McCain 49 Obama 47 (virtually unchanged)
No Bounce Either Way in VA After 2 Political Conventions; State Still In-Play: In an election for President of the United States in Virginia today, 09/08/08, 8 weeks till votes are counted, John McCain and Barack Obama remain effectively tied, in research conducted for WDBJ-TV in Roanoke, WJLA-TV in Washington DC, WTVR-TV in Richmond and WJHL-TV in the Tri-Cities. Today, it's McCain 49%, Obama 47%, within the survey's 3.7 percentage point margin of sampling error and effectively unchanged from an identical SurveyUSA poll 4 weeks ago, conducted before both political conventions, which showed McCain 48%, Obama 47%.

3. So many speeches by both sides, just for a tie.
If the Democrats and Republicans didn't hold conventions, we could have had the same result.

4. The problem we have here in No. Virginia is TOO much volunteer enthusiasm!
Folks tell our volunteers all the time that they've had six people in the last two weeks knocking on their doors on behalf of the Democrats.

Unlike Ohio, we're just not used to this kind of attention so some are a little cranky.

Heavily populated, Northern VA is trending blue at a rapid pace. And talk about motivated!
