CAMPAIGN 2012 Suffolk poll shows Warren leading Brown by 7 10/30/2012 12:53 PM READ MORE BLOGS E-mail | Print | Comments (115) E - mail 58 Tweet 14 2 0 690 By Noah Bierman, Globe Staff A new poll released today shows Elizabeth Warren leading Senator Scott Brown by 7 percentage points, one of the Democratic challenger’s largest leads in any poll taken in recent months. The poll, by Suffolk University/News 7, was released a day after a Boston Globe poll showed a much tighter race, with Brown leading by 2 percentage points. The Globe poll showed an exact tie when including responses from voters who did not express an initial preference but said they were leaning in one direction. The Suffolk poll showed Warren leading with 53 percent of the vote compared with 46 percent for Brown. The poll of 600 likely voters, interviewed by phone, was taken Oct. 25 through Oct. 28 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent. “Elizabeth Warren is riding a final wave of momentum to the US Senate,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston, in a news release. The poll suggests that Brown’s attempt to paint Warren as untrustworthy and “not who she says she is” are not taking hold. Of those surveyed, 54 percent said she “is who she says she is” whereas 25 percent said she is not. Raise Your Voice Click to contact candidates or elected officials about this issue. The Suffolk poll showed a much wider lead for President Obama over Mitt Romney -- 63 percent to 31 percent -- than the Globe poll, which showed Obama only winning by 14 percent. Twelve of 16 polls take in September and October show Warren with a lead. Noah Bierman can be reached at [email protected].

By Charles P. Pierce Things have gone a little hinky up here in the Massachusetts Senate race ever since Ms. Sandra came ashore. Elizabeth Warren and Scott Brown were scheduled to have their fourth and last debate on Tuesday night. Unfortunately for all concerned, McDreamy bagged the event on Monday, at the height of the storm, claiming that... "The Scott Brown campaign today announced that out of concern for the hardship faced by people in the path of Hurricane Sandy that he will not be participating in tomorrow's fourth and final debate," spokesman Colin Reed said. "It is simply not appropriate to go forward with a political debate when a disaster strikes. The focus for all of us before, during, and after the storm needs to be on emergency response and disaster relief, not campaigns and politics." For context, the statement added: "Both President Obama and Mitt Romney have cancelled their campaign events for Tuesday, as did Senate candidates in Pennsylvania and Virginia. Additionally, the Maine Senate debate scheduled for tomorrow has been cancelled." As common sense demanded, Warren agreed, but said she'd be willing merely to postpone the debate, rather than canceling it entirely. (Also, too: four debates is too damn many for a Senate campaign anyway.) There was a chance that the two could meet on Thursday night. Nope, said Brown, who spent a couple of days tooling around the battered Massachusetts coast in his pickup and his Official Campaign Windbreaker, pretending like he wasn't running for anything. Not long before Brown scarpered, the Boston Globe published a poll showing the race a dead heat, which was contrary to most of the previous polls that showed Warren with a slim, but consistent, lead. The thinking was that Brown's internal numbers are showing him the same thing, and that he's decided to go to ground and depend on his ads rather than get kicked around a stage again. The bloom partially came off that strategy when Suffolk University came out with its own poll. showing Warren up seven points. Still a one or two-point race, I'm thinking. http://www.esquire.com/blogs/politics/massachusetts-senate-race-polls-14302895 www. esquir e. com / pr int - t his/ m assachuset t s- senat e- r ace- polls- 14302895?page=all 1/ 1 [ht ~uubtty 1tuftrprist Date: Location: Circulation (DMA): Type (Frequency): Page: Section: Keyword: Sunday, October 21 , 2012 BROCKTON,MA 6,500 (7) Newspaper (S) 18 Main Suffolk University Personal stories on both sides of physician--assisted suicide debate By Undsey Anderson ASSOCIATED PRESS BOSTON - Leaders on opposite sides of Massachusetts' right to die debate are fighting for the same reason: Both have watched loved ones receive fatal diagnoses. Dr. Marcia Angell supports the initiative. Her father shot himself to death rather than die from metastatic prostate cancer in 1988. She believes he would've lived longer and not turned to a pistol had assisted suicide been available. Rosanne Bacon Meade's sister-in-Iaw is still fighting cancer, 18 months after doctors gave her three months to live. She opposes the measure, saying diagnoses are often wrong. Voters will weigh in Nov. 6 on a ba110t question to make Massachusetts the third state, after Oregon and Washington, to legalize physician-assisted suicide for people with terminal illnesses. Money' has poured in from both supporters and opponents, many with personal stories like Angell's and Meade's. The measure would allow terminally ill patients whose doctors say they have six months or less to live to obtain lethal doses of medication. A Suffolk University/7 NEWS poll in September found 64 percent of 600 likely Massachusetts voters support legalization, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. The initiative sterns from a ballot petition filed by Bostonbased Dignity 2012 and a terminally ill Stoughton man's 2009 'attempt to get a similar bill passed in the state legislature.

Montana's Supreme Court ruled state law doesn't prohibit doctors from helping patients die. "It's not a question of life versus death," said Angell, lead signer of the petition and former editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine. "It's a question of what kind of death." Religious and medical groups and advocates for the disabled are the measure's primary opponents.

Obama spoke to about 8,500 people outside a middle school in Nashua, on the Massachusetts border. Pointing out the proximity, Obama said that while Romney promised to fight for jobs and middle-class families when be ran for governor, he ended up pushing through a tax cut that helped the wealthy while raising fees that hurt the middle class to the tune of $750 million. "There were higher fees to be a barber, higher fees to become a nurse," he said. "There were higher fees for gas. There were higher fees for milk. There were higher fees for blind people who needed to get a certificate (saying) that they were blind." Obama, who has been accused by members of the birther movement of being born outside the United States, joked that Romney even "raised fees to get a birth certificate, which would've been expensive for me." Rounding out the list was a fee on funeral homes, Obama said. "There were literally cradle-to-grave tax hikes and fees," he said, adding that during Romney 's time as governor, only three states ranked lower in job creation than Massachusetts. Romney spokesman Ryan Williams called Obama's criticism "laughable coming from a president whose only plan for a second term is to recycle the fail ed policies of the last four years." He said Romney cut taxes 19 times as governor and created tens of thousands of new jobs. "President Obama is the only candidate in this race who has raised taxes on America's middle class," he said. Yesterday's rally was the Democratic president's sixth trip to New Hampshire this year and was one of several high-profile campaign events planned for the state in the next few days, though a huge storm barreling toward the East Coast had both campaigns adjusting travel schedples and canceling events. First lady Michelle Obama had been scheduled to speak at the University of New Hampshire on Tuesday but cancelled because the school is closing due to the approaching storm. As of Saturday, Romney still planned to hold a rally in Milford on Tuesday night, and his v·life was due in the state Monday. The activity underscores the degree to which New Hampshire's four electoral college votes are valued in what is expected to be a close election. A WMUR-TV Granite State poll released Oct. 9 showed Obama with a slight lead over Romney in New Hampshire. A SUffolk University/7 News poll released a week later showed the two tied. Introducing Obama, U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen tried to rally female voters by again mocking Romney's recent debate comments that he was given "binders full of women" when he sought to diversify his administration. "We don't need binders full of women. We have ballots full of women," said Shalheen, the first woman elected governor and the state's first female U.S. senator. Democrats have nominated 'Women for governor and the state's two congressional seats this year. "It 's clear that women can't trust Mitt Romney," Shaheen said. "We'll keep our rights, we'll keep our bealth care and we'll keep our president." Ahead of Hurricane Sandy, Obama also brought some '" Fire and Rain " to New Hampshire, where he was joined by singer James Taylor. Taylor, who performed that and several other of his Wts, said that while Republicans say they don't need government, storms like the one expected to hit the Northeast early next week make it clear tlhat "we need someone there bo help us."

Scott Brown, Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday said she still wants to debate Brown one more time, and suggested Thursday night for the final matchup. Brown, however, has yet to commit to a new date for the debate, and suggested to reporters following the senator on his tour of storm damage that a fourth meeting might not be necessary. "Our focus over the next 48 hours must be on public safety and holding the utilities accountable for restoring power as soon as possible. Elizabeth believes that the final televised debate should occur, and we have contacted the debate organizers and let them know she would be available to participate on Thursday evening;' Warren campaign manager Mindy Myers said in a statement. The fourth and final debate was scheduled for Tuesday night, a week before the Nov. 6 election. It was postponed Monday due to the lingering impact of Hurricane Sandy. Brown was the first to withdraw Monday night, calling it "inappropriate" to proceed with the debate after the massive storm knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of residents and caused damage across the state. Warren agreed that the debate should not be held Tuesday, but offered on Tuesday to reschedule for Thursday. A Brown spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment, and debate organizers said they were still waiting to hear from Brown's campaign. 'We've already had three debates. I had two radio debates that she didn't participate in;' Brown said in Westport, according to the Boston Globe. "There's only a few days left and we have a very, very busy schedule;' Brown said. Brown on Thursday plans to kick off a bus tour with Congressional candidate Richard Tisei and Rep. Don Wong (R-Saugus) in Wakefield. On Sunday, he plans meet-and-greet events in Weymouth, Waltham and Needham. Warren on Tuesday had two public events, visiting flooded areas of Westport near Horseneck Beach and in Scituate. Brown, meanwhile, had a packed "Storm Relief Schedule" with seven events starting in the morning in Rehoboth with stops planned in Westport, South Dartmouth, Quincy, Newbury and Gloucester. On Monday before withdrawing, Brown told reporters, "If it's appropriate, we will have it (Tuesday) or the next day or the next day. Certainly we're going to do it. I think the people will want to hear where we stand on all the final issues ... before the election;' according to the Associated Press. The Suffolk/ 7News poll of likely general election voters showed Warren leading Brown with 53 percent to Brown's 46 percent, up from the 4-point lead she held over Brown in the last Suffolk/7News poll in September. Warren is also more popular among voters surveyed with 51 percent indicating they had a favorable opinion of the Harvard professor and consumer advocate compared to 45 percent who view Brown favorable. Thirty-six percent of voters had an unfavorable opinion of Warren compared to 42 percent for Brown. "Elizabeth Warren is riding a final wave of momentum to the U.S. Senate;' David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center said in a statement.

Scott Brown uses powerful imagery and audio to display the significance of the Senate seat he holds while delivering his message that he votes with his conscience over his political party. The ad is a departure from the negativity associated with attacking Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren on her previous legal work or questioning her Native American ancestry and more in line with Brown's ads prior to the final stretch of the race. But the latest and final ad also contrasts Brown's positivetoned TV spots focusing on women's issues as well as the region-specific Springfield ad as its style and tone are quite serious. "Every day I hold this office, I will give all that is in me to serve you well and make you proud. I've kept my promise to be an independent voice," Brown says in the ad. "I put people ahead of politics, and now I need your help to keep that independent tradition alive in Massachusetts." The ad pushes Brown's carefully crafted reputation as a moderate Republican, citing the Congressional Quarterly study which concluded that based on his 2011 voting record, he was the 2nd most bipartisan senator in the United States. The ad also shows him sitting with Democratic President Barack Obama at one of Brown's bill signings, an image that shows he can work across the aisle at a time when partisan gridlock has blocked progress on most legislation in Washington. Upon release of the ad, the Massachusetts Democratic Party took aim at Brown with a web video, arguing that he portrays himself as an independent in the Bay State, but as a Republican while in the nation's Capitol. Democratic Party Chair John Walsh noted Brown's seldom-spoken support for GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney as proof of a conflicting message. "No matter how much Scott Brown tries to tiptoe around his support for Mitt Romney, the people of Massachusetts know that Brown shares Romney's philosophy of cutting taxes for the rich and letting middle-class families pick up the bill," Walsh said. "Putting Mitt Romney in the White House and electing Scott Brown and a Republican Senate would give big oil, Wall Street, and huge corporations a leg up while working families and small businesses get left behind." Democrats have worked to tie Brown to Romney and the national Republican Party, which has moved farther to the right over the past four years. At one point, they even dubbed the duo Bromney. But despite the attempts by Democrats, Brown remains more popular than Warren with independent voters, which made up 52 percent of the electorate in Massachusetts as of August. A Suffolk univerSi~/7News poll released on I ues ay concluded that while Warren maintained an edge overall, 53-46 percent, Brown maintained more support among independents, 54-43 percent over Warren. While including images of his wife and two daughters, who have all played a part in his campaign, the ad also reminds of Brown's National Guard service with a picture of him being promoted to Colonel. In that picture, however, Republican U.S. Sen. John McCain's image is shadowed out. Although the last TV ad doesn't include attacks on Warren or negativity in general, the same can't be said for a web ad released by the Brown campaign on Wednesday. A 30 second video reiterating their label of Warren as a "job destroyer" again cites a study conducted by Ernst & Young which was critical of Obama's tax plan, not Warren's. The study, conducted for The National Federation of Independent Business and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, said the president's tax proposal would cost 710,000 U.S. jobs, including more than 17,000 in Massachusetts. The study examined four proposals by Obama: an increase in the two top tax rates; an increase in the Medicare tax for high-income taxpayers prompted by the Affordable Care Act; a limitation on itemized deductions for high income taxpayers; and an increase in the top tax rate for dividends and capital gains. The White House has disputed the study's conclusion, arguing that it ignores the president's proposed tax cuts, and ignores economic growth and the benefits of cutting the deficit. Though Warren agrees with some of Obama's proposals, the study did not mention Warren or her policies.

According to a poll released on Tuesday, 47 percent ofvoters support Question 2, which would allow terminally ill adults to self-administer lethal drugs after obtaining a prescription. Forty-one percent opposed it, said the poll by Suffolk University and WHDH -TV channel 'tm Boston. The six-point advantage contrasts sharply with the 37-point lead the question enjoyed just six weeks ago when 64 percent supported it, the authors of the poll said. Rosanne Meade, chairwoman of the Committee Against Physician-Assisted Suicide, said opponents of the ballot question are encouraged by the poll. "It looks like people are being educated about the dangers of the ballot question and, in many instances, are changPlease see Ballot, Page A2 ingtheirminds," Meade said on Wednesday. Stephen G. Crawford, communications director for Dignity 2012, said the good news is that the question is leading in the Suffolk Poll and another recent poll by the University of New Hampshire and The Boston Globe. "Regrettably, voters are facing a barrage of negative ads that are financed by out-of-state fringe groups willing to say anything to defeat Question 2," Crawford said. In one recent television commercial, a pharmacist says that if Question 2 is approved, people could obtain a deadly dose of 100 Seconal pills at a local drugstore. The pharmacist warns that there is no oversight once the pills are provided. The Suffolk poll, which questioned 600 likely voters from Oct. 25-28, had a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points. The proposed law is modeled after similar laws enacted in Washington in 2009 and Oregonin 1997. Question 2 is also opposed by the four Roman Catholic bishops, including Bishop Timothy McDonnell in Springfield. About 2.6 million Catholics live in Massachusetts, or about 40 to 45 percent of the population, according to the Massachusetts Catholic Conference. Meade said her group includes people who belong to a lot of different religions. "They worry it will change the perspective on how people value life," she said. The Committee Against Physician-Assisted Suicide raised $2 million this year and spent $1.6 million, according to a report at the state Office of Campaign and Political Finance. The Knights of Columbus in New Haven contributed $350,000, and St. John's Seminary Corp. in Boston donated $500,000. Another opposing group, Massachusetts Against Doctor Prescribed Suicide, raised $331 ,000 and spent $265,000. The Louisiana Right to Life Educational Committee contributed $10,000; Taxpayers for Accountability in Sacramento gave $30,000, while Sean Fieler, president of Equinox Partners in Princeton, N.J. , contributed $150,000. Dignity 2012 has raised about $500,000 this year and last and spent about $420,000, according to recent reports. Crawford said the group will be running its own ad campaign between now and Nov. 6. To be eligible for the life-ending medications, people would need to be diagnosed with a terminal illness and given six months or less to live by a primary doctor with verification by a consulting doctor.

Scott Brown. Organizers said the debate, which was scheduled for Tuesday but postponed because of the storm, has been canceled because the candidates couldn't agree on a new date. Warren had agreed to participate in a debate Thursday, but Brown had refused to say Thesday whether he would take part despite pledging twice in recent days that a final debate would happen - even offering to give Warren a lift to the debate in the same truck he's used in political ads. Late Thesday, a Brown spokesman said the campaign couldn't accommodate the fourth debate, pointing to what he called a long-planned bus tour. On Monday morning, however, Brown said the debate would happen on Thesday, if appropriate, "or the next day or the next day." "Certainly, we're going to do it,"Brown told reporters. "I think the people will want to hear where we stand on all the final issues ... before the election." At a news conference Friday, Brown was equally emphatic, saying he would have no problem attending a final debate, even in inclement weather. "That's why I have a truck: It has four-wheel drive ," Brown said Friday. "If she needs a ride, happy to pick her up. I'll be there providing the electricity is on." Late Monday, however, Brown pulled out of the debate and on Thesday refused to commit to a rescheduled matchup. Warren campaign manager Mindy Myers said it's unfortunate that voters won't have a final chance to hear from both candidates. "Elizabeth was working with the debate organizers to move forward on Thursday. Unfortunately but not surprisingly, Scott Brown is again ducking questions about his record voting on the side of big oil and billionaires," Myers said in a written statement late Tuesday. LATEST POLL Suffolk University and WHDH-TV poll showed a tight race Tuesday. Elizabeth Warren had support from 53 percent compared with 46 percent for Sen. Scott Brown.

Scott Brown, Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday said she still wants to debate Brown one more time, and suggested Thursday night for the final matchup. Brown, however, has yet to commit to a new date for the debate, and suggested to reporters following the senator on his tour of storm damage that a fourth meeting might not be necessary. "Our focus over the next 48 hours must be on public safety and holding the utilities accountable for restoring power as soon as possible. Elizabeth believes that the final televised debate should occur, and we have contacted the debate organizers and let them know she would be available to participate on Thursday evening;' Warren campaign manager Mindy Myers said in a statement. The fourth and final debate was scheduled for Tuesday night, a week before the Nov. 6 election. It was postponed Monday due to the lingering impact of Hurricane Sandy. Brown was the first to withdraw Monday night, calling it "inappropriate" to proceed with the debate after the massive storm knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of residents and caused damage across the state. Warren agreed that the debate should not be held Tuesday, but offered on Tuesday to reschedule for Thursday. A Brown spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment, and debate organizers said they were still waiting to hear from Brown's campaign. "We've already had three debates. I had two radio debates that she didn't participate in," Brown said in Westport, according to the Boston Globe. "There's only a few days left and we have a very, very busy schedule;' Brown said. Brown on Thursday plans to kick off a bus tour with Congressional candidate Richard Tisei and Rep. Don Wong CR-Saugus) in Wakefield. On Sunday, he plans meetand-greet events in Weymouth, Waltham and Needham. Warren on Tuesday had two public events, visiting flooded areas of Westport near Horseneck Beach and in Scituate. Brown, meanwhile, had a packed "Storm Relief Schedule" with seven events starting in the morning in Rehoboth with stops planned in Westport, South Dartmouth, Quincy, Newbury and Gloucester. On Monday before withdrawing, Brown told reporters, "If it's appropriate, we will have it CTues- day) or the next day or the next day. Certainly we're going to do it. I think the people will want to hear where we stand on all the final issues ... before the election;' according to the Associated Press. The Suffolk/7News poll of likely general election voters showed Warren leading Brown with 53 percent to Brown's 46 percent, up from the 4-point lead she held over Brown in the last Suffolk/7News poll in September. Warren is also more popular among voters surveyed with 51 percent indicating they had a favorable opinion of the Harvard professor and consumer advocate compared to 45 percent who view Brown favorable. Thirty-six percent of voters had an unfavorable opinion of Warren compared to 42 percent for Brown. "Elizabeth Warren is riding a final wave of momentum to the U.S. Senate," David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center said in a statement. "Unless something drastically changes in the final days before the election, you will be hearing the title 'Senator-elect' Warren instead of 'Professor' Warren."

The poll, by Suffolk Uniyer~News 7, was released a day after a Boston Globe poll showed a much tighter race, with Brown leading by 2 percentage points. The Globe poll showed an exact tie when including responses from voters who did not express an initial preference but said they were leaning in one direction. The Suffolk poll showed Warren leading with 53 percent of the vote compared with 46 percent for Brown. The poll of 600 likely Massachusetts voters, interviewed by phone, was taken Oct. 25 through 28 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. "Elizabeth Warren is riding a final wave of momentum to the US Senate," David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, said in a statement. The poll suggests that Brown's attempt to paint Warren as untrustworthy and "not who she says she is" are not taking hold. Of those surveyed, 54 percent said she "is who she says she is" whereas 25 percent said she is not. The Suffolk poll showed a much wider lead for President Obama over Mitt Romney - 63 percent to 31 percent - than the Globe poll, which showed Obama ahead by 14 percentage points. 1\velve of 16 polls taken in September and October showed Warren with a lead.

The fact that his challenger, Elizabeth Warren, sent in her cancellation moments later seems not to matter much. In fact, the one thing these two agreed on was that, as Warren's campaign put it Monday, "Elizabeth believes the focus now must be on public safety and ensuring people get the help they need during the storm and its aftermath." But to look at our email in-box, you'd think Brown had personally arranged for Hurricane Sandy to blow up the East Coast just so he could avoid one more matchup with Warren. "He makes it sound as if the reason that he can't debate is that he's just too busy manning rowboats and handing out blankets," wrote one voter who - we're just guessing now - has already made up his mind in the race. In fact, after three TV debates polls show the "undecideds" in single digits and frankly some of those are just toying with pollsters anyway. So the zealots are having a field day - it gives them something to complain about other than the weather. Too bad they can't step away from the computer long enough to help a neighbor clean the debris from the yard. But as the sun began to appear on Tuesday, the "professor," as Brown delights in calling Warren, issued a statement saying that Thursday night was clear on her schedule. Certainly a recent Boston Globe poll which showed a neck and neck race (although a SJ.J..ffulk University poll had her up by 7 percentage points) had nothing at all to do with her enthusiasm for a Thursday debate - one co-sponsored by the Globe, which had just endorsed her. But all that's mere coincidence we're certain. Yes, some 300,000 households are still without power and wouldn't be able to watch it anyway. And more than a few are distracted by the flooding in their basements and the trees down on the street. In fact, Brown spent yesterday inspecting storm damage from Rehoboth to Plum Island - it's what incumbents do. Warren's campaign did not release an official schedule.

By EMILY SCHULTHEIS | 10/30/12 1:37 PM EDT A new poll (http://www.suffolk.edu/offices/53953.html) out from Suffolk shows Elizabeth Warren expanding her lead in the Massachusetts Senate race: Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren (53 percent) has widened her lead over incumbent Republican Scott Brown (46 percent), according to a Suffolk University/7News (WHDH-Boston) poll of likely general election voters in Massachusetts. Just over 1 percent were still undecided. In a September Suffolk University/7News poll, Warren led Brown 48 percent to 44 percent, with 8 percent undecided. “Elizabeth Warren is riding a final wave of momentum to the U.S. Senate,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston. “Unless something drastically changes in the final days before the election, you will be hearing the title ‘Senator-elect’ Warren instead of ‘Professor’ Warren.” The majority of polling that's come out of the race lately shows Warren leading Brown, though a Boston Globe poll (http://www.boston.com/politicalintelligence/2012/10/29/new-globe-poll-shows-dead-heat-senaterace/e24Cs1rOxVcX7m6MZlFFSO/story.html) yesterday gave Brown a 2-point lead.

In past surveys Obama has dominated Romney in likability. But here, the two candidates get nearly identical ratings. Obama is viewed favorably by 50 percent of voters and unfavorably by 46 percent; Romney is viewed favorably by 50 percent and unfavorably by 45. Obama leads 54 to 41 percent among those who have voted already, a reflection of his campaign’s intense focus on early voting. A Quinnipiac/CBS News poll released Monday gave Obama the lead in Ohio among likely voters, 50 to 45 percent. A month ago, the same poll gave Obama a 10-point lead. © The Washington Post Company www. washingt onpost . com / blogs/ post - polit ics/ wp/ 2012/ 10/ 22/ suf f olk- poll- obam a- r om ney- t ied- in- ohio/ … 1/ 1 1/14/13 Ohio Poll of Polls shows tight race – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs October 22nd, 2012 02:35 PM ET Share this on: Facebook Twitter Digg del.icio.us reddit MySpace StumbleUpon 84 days ago Ohio Poll of Polls shows tight race Posted by CNN Political Unit (CNN) - The latest collection of polls in Ohio shows a razor thin margin between President Barack Obama and his rival Mitt Romney in the key battleground two weeks ahead of the November 6 election. The CNN Poll of Polls shows Obama at 48% and Romney at 45% in Ohio, which carries 18 electoral votes. Those numbers are an average of three Ohio polls of likely voters conducted after the second presidential debate: Quinnipiac University/CBS News (October 17-20); Suffolk University (Oct. 18-21) and Fox News (Oct. 17-18). The Poll of Polls does not have a sampling error.

Both candidates have been campaigning heavily in Ohio, and have taken steps to increase turnout in the Buckeye State. Both Romney and Obama have also urged their supporters to cast their ballots early. In the Suffolk University poll of Ohio, which was released Monday, a gender gap persisted for the two presidential candidates. Obama was ahead of Romney among women, 53%-41%, but Romney led among men, 52%-40%. "All roads to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue lead through Ohio," David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, wrote in a statement. "Timing is everything. Barack Obama has banked an early lead, but Mitt Romney should even the score with his slight edge among likely voters who plan to cast ballots on Election Day. However, failure to turn out his voters on November sixth could be costly for Romney." Favorability-wise, the two candidates fared evenly: both were at 50% favorability ratings. And with the final presidential debate focused on foreign policy, Obama held a slight edge on the topic among likely Ohio voters. Forty-nine percent said the incumbent would better handle foreign policy if re-elected, compared to 42% who said Romney would better handle America's dealings abroad. "These are high foreign policy expectations that the President must live up to in the final debate tonight," said Paleologos. "If he lives up to his billing, he could close the deal. However, failure to meet or exceed those expectations could open up the race for Romney." The Suffolk University poll was conducted by telephone between October 18-21 from 600 likely Ohio voters. The sampling error was plus or minus 4 percentage points. – Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker – Check out the CNN Electoral Map and Calculator and game out your own strategy for November. politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/10/22/ohio-poll-of-polls-shows-tight-race/ 3/6 1/14/13 Business & Financial News, Breaking US & International News | Reuters.com » Print This copy is for your personal, non-commercial use only.

UPDATE 3-Obama and Romney meet for final debate as race tightens Mon, Oct 22 2012 * Debates have been unusually important in 2012 campaign * Libya, Iran top issues in Boca Raton contest * Reuters/Ipsos poll shows two candidates are tied By Steve Holland and Sam Youngman BOCA RATON, Fla., Oct 22 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney face off in front of the cameras for a final time on Monday as opinion polls show their battle for the White House has tightened to a dead heat. With 15 days to go until the Nov. 6 election, the two candidates turn to foreign policy for their third and last debate, which starts at 9 p.m. (0100 GMT on Tuesday). The stakes are high, as the two candidates are tied at 46 percent each in the Reuters/Ipsos online daily tracking poll. The debate will likely be the last time either candidate will be able to directly appeal to millions of voters - especially the roughly 20 pct who have yet to make up their minds or who could still switch their support. Obama comes to this debate with several advantages. As sitting president, he has been deeply involved with national security and foreign affairs for the past three-and-a-half years. He can point to a number of successes on his watch, from the end of the Iraq war to the killing of Osama bin Laden. But Romney will have many chances to steer the conversation back toward the sluggish U.S. economy, a topic on which voters see him as more credible. He will also try to use unease about a nuclear Iran and turmoil in Libya to sow doubts about Obama's leadership at home and abroad. Romney launched his candidacy with an accusation that Obama was not representing U.S. interests aggressively enough, but after a decade of war voters have little appetite for further entanglements abroad. After a clumsy overseas trip in July, Romney will have to demonstrate to voters that he could ably represent the United States on the world stage. "What he needs to do is get through this third debate by showing a close familiarity with the issues and a demeanor in foreign policy that is not threatening," said Cal Jillson, a political science professor at Southern Methodist University. Presidential debates have not always been consequential, but this year they have had an impact. Romney's strong performance in the first debate in Denver on Oct. 3 helped him recover from a series of stumbles and wiped out Obama's advantage in opinion polls. Obama fared better in their second encounter on Oct. 16, but that has not helped him regain the lead. The Obama campaign is now playing defense as it tries to limit Romney's gains in several of the battleground states that will decide the election. Romney could have a hard time winning the White House if he does not carry Ohio. A new Quinnipiac/CBS poll shows Obama leading by 5 percentage points in the Midwestern state, but another by Suffolk University shows the two candidates tied there. LAST-CHANCE DEBATE More than 60 million viewers watched each of their previous two debates, but the television audience this time could be smaller as it will air at the same time as high-profile baseball and football games. Much of the exchange, which takes place at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida, will likely focus on the Middle East. Campaigning in Canton, Ohio, on Monday, Vice President Joe Biden reminded voters of Obama's pledge to pull troops out of Afghanistan in the next two years and pointed out that Romney and his running mate Paul Ryan have made no such guarantees. "They said, quote, it depends. Ladies and gentlemen, like everything with them, it depends," Biden said. "It depends on what day you find these guys." At their second debate last week, the two presidential candidates clashed bitterly over Libya, a preview of what is to come www.reuters.com/assets/print?aid=USL1E8LM3WI20121022 1/2 1/14/13 Business & Financial News, Breaking US & International News | Reuters.com on Monday evening. They argued over Obama's handling of the attack last month on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi in which Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed. The Obama administration first labeled the incident a spontaneous reaction to a video made in the United States that lampooned the Prophet Mohammad. Later, it said it was a terrorist assault on the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. This shifting account, and the fact that Obama went on a campaign trip the day after the attack, has given Romney ammunition to use at Monday's debate. "The statements were either misleading by intention or they were misleading by accident. Either way, though, he's got to get to the bottom of this," Romney adviser Dan Senor said on NBC's "Today" show. Obama and his allies charge that Romney exploited the Benghazi attack for political points while officials were still accounting for the wellbeing of U.S. diplomats. Regarding foreign policy overall, Obama's allies accuse Romney of relying on generalities and platitudes. "It is astonishing that Romney has run for president for six years and never once bothered to put forward a plan to end the war in Afghanistan, for example, or to formulate a policy to go after al Qaeda," U.S. Senator John Kerry, the Democrats' 2004 presidential nominee, wrote in a memo released by the Obama campaign on Monday. Romney has promised to tighten the screws over Iran's nuclear program and accused Obama of "leading from behind" as Syria's civil war expands. He also has faulted Obama for setting up a politically timed exit from the unpopular Afghanistan war, and accused him of failing to support Israel, an important ally in the Middle East. The Republican challenger is likely to bring up a New York Times report from Saturday that said the United States and Iran had agreed in principle to hold bilateral negotiations to halt what Washington and its allies say is a plan by Tehran to develop nuclear weapons. The 90-minute debate, moderated by Bob Schieffer of CBS, will be divided into six segments: America's role in the world; the war in Afghanistan; Israel and Iran; the changing Middle East; terrorism; and China's rise. © Thomson Reuters 2011.

S News - Upi. com Poll: Candidates tied 47-47 in Ohio Published: Oct. 22, 2012 at 3:49 PM BOSTON, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- BOSTON, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- President Obama and Republican rival Mitt Romney are tied in the battleground state of Ohio, a Suffolk University poll of likely Buckeye State voters indicated. Likely voters split 47 percent between the two major candidates, results of the poll released Monday indicated. Romney led Obama 49 percent to 44 percent among respondents who said they would vote on Election Day, while Obama led 48 percent to 44 percent among those planning to vote before Nov. 6, the poll said. Obama swamped Romney 54 percent to 41 percent among voters who said they already cast ballots. "All roads to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue lead through Ohio," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston. "Timing is everything. Barack Obama has banked an early lead, but Mitt Romney should even the score with his slight edge among likely voters who plan to cast ballots on Election Day. However, failure to turn out his voters on November sixth could be costly for Romney." Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson, independent candidate Richard Duncan, and Green Party nominee Jill Stein each received 1 percent, the poll said. Three percent of likely voters asked said they were undecided. Results are based on a statewide phone survey of 600 likely Ohio voters conducted Thursday through Sunday. The margin of error is 4 percentage points. © 2012 United Press International, Inc.

Obama echoed the tagline used by the speakers who preceded him, New Hampshire's Democratic U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and Gov . John Ly nch, who said the path to economic prosperity goes through the country 's middle class. The president said economic resurgence starts f rom the "middle out," not Romney 's f ailed "trickle down" ideology . Obama zeroed in on Romney 's def icit reduction plan, say ing the Republican has giv en Americans precious f ew details about how he would pay f or it. "Let me tell y ou something," Obama said. "When a politician doesn't tell y ou the details of his plan, it's not because it's so good that he doesn't want to spoil the secret." He added, "Gov . Romney has a tax plan that doesn't add up, a jobs plan that doesn't create jobs and a def icit plan that doesn't reduce the def icit." Obama dev oted extra time to women's issues, an ef f ort that ref lects his campaign's emphasis on attracting undecided f emale v oters. Early polls showed that the president enjoy ed margins of support among women, but recent surv ey s show that Romney has made gains with them. In Manchester, Obama hammered the f ormer Massachusetts gov ernor f or not showing support f or an equal-pay bill that the president signed in 2009. He also jabbed at Romney 's "binders f ull of women" gaf f e during Tuesday night's debate. Romney 's slip has became an instant Internet meme and has been exploited by the Obama campaign. "We don't need to order up some binders to f ind some talented, driv en y oung women who are ready to work right now," Obama said. Obama emphasized the equal pay bill and women's reproductiv e choices. He added, "I hav e two daughters and I want them to earn as much as somebody else's sons. Any conf usion there?" The president also poked at the New Hampshire Legislature, where some Republicans hav e tried to pass laws that would restrict access to abortion. Obama said gov ernment has no business telling women what to do with their bodies. The crowd, packed mostly by committed supporters and grass-roots v olunteers, soaked it up. Whenev er the crowd booed Romney , Obama urged them, "Don't boo. Vote!" His call to action underscored one of the president's re-election obstacles: an enthusiasm gap. Bef ore the speech, Vanessa Hargrov e of Jamaica Plain, Mass., said she v oted f or Obama in 2008. She acknowledged that energy f or the president is more subdued in 2012. "But he deserv es another chance, a f resh start," Hargrov e said. "He inherited a huge def icit, two wars and a depression. It's not his f ault." The president's campaign blitz in New Hampshire ref lects a f rantic pursuit of the Granite State's f our Electoral College v otes. It was the president's second v isit to New Hampshire since September. Polls show that he's popular here but still running in a dead heat with Romney . New Hampshire is one of sev eral swing states in the battle f or the presidency .

A recent poll by the Univ ersity of New Hampshire Surv ey Center reported that the president's approv al rating is 52 percent. Andrew Smith, director of the center, noted that presidents ty pically get re-elected when their approv al rating is higher than 50 percent. On Thursday , Larry Sabato, executiv e director of the Center f or Politics at the Univ ersity of Virginia, noted that the race is dif f icult to peg because it has lacked "commanding heights or punishing v alley s" f or either candidate. Sabato noted that the president's problem is that he hasn't hit his peak. "This points to an enthusiasm gap f or the president, as does the persistent registered v oter/likely v oter gaps in public opinion polls, which almost alway s show the president doing better among the registered v oter pool than the smaller likely v oter pool," Sabato noted. Obama's speech Thursday , howev er, appeared to inv igorate his supporters. Karen Ricci, 34, of Manchester, who said she wasn't af f iliated with the campaign, said af terward that the president's remarks resonated with her. "Romney is a salesman," she said.

Likely voters in the Granite State are split 47% to 47%, according to a Suffolk University/7News survey. Two percent of voters support Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson, while 4% are undecided. – Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker – Check out the CNN Electoral Map and Calculator and game out your own strategy for November. The poll comes a few days after a survey by American Research Group on Friday showed Romney with 50% and Obama with 46%, a margin that fell within the poll's sampling error. Both surveys were conducted entirely after the first presidential debate, which was held in Denver on October 3. The two candidates face off again for the second debate Tuesday in Hempstead, New York. While Obama had largely maintained a steady advantage over Romney in New Hampshire for much of the campaign, the race has grown tighter in recent weeks. Romney gained a modest bounce in several swing states after his widely applauded performance at the first debate. The new poll also indicates Obama fares better than Romney on personality and foreign policy, but the Republican nominee edges out the president, 45% to 42%, when voters are asked which candidate had the best plan to fix the economy. CNN rates New Hampshire, with its four electoral votes, as a "toss-up" on its Electoral Map. With the race so close, New Hampshire is one state where support for Johnson, the Libertarian candidate, could prove decisive in the final results. David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston, said Obama will likely benefit more than Romney from Johnson voters. "Politics is full of ironies. Gary Johnson voters are predisposed to voting against the incumbent president, but Johnson's presence on the New Hampshire presidential ballot is actually helping Obama," Paleologos said. "Those anti-incumbent voters - at least right now - aren't finding their way to Mitt Romney." The poll comes the same day as a new survey suggests the race for the White House is a dead heat nationwide. A CNN Poll of Polls that averages seven nonpartisan, live operator, national surveys conducted entirely after the first debate indicates Obama at 47% and Romney at 48% among likely voters. For the New Hampshire survey, Suffolk interviewed 500 likely New Hampshire voters by telephone between October 12 and 14. The poll's sampling error is plus or minus 4.4 percentage points. – CNN Political Editor Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report.

The latest Suffolk University/7News survey shows the two candidates tied with 47 percent support each among likely voters. Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate, tallies 2 percent support, with another 4 percent undecided. Of those respondents who picked a candidate, 90 percent said their mind was made up, while 9 percent said their vote could shift. Both candidates have net favorable ratings, with Obama at 50 percent to 44, and Romney with a 48 percent favorable, 46 unfavorable split. Voters, though, said they felt more connection with Obama than Romney, by 48 to 44 percent. But — in a troubling signb for Obama — voters are evenly divided on his performance as president, with 47 percent approving and 47 percent disapproving. Obama, though, continues to hold his edge among female voters, with 50 percent support to Romney’s 46. But the GOP challenger is ahead among men, 49-43. Romney holds the advantage when asked which candidate can best fix the economy, with 45 percent picking the former Massachusetts governor to 42 percent for Obama. t hehil. com / blogs/ ballot - box/ polls/ 262187- poll- obam a- r om ney- deadlocked- in- nh?t m pl=com ponent &pr int =… 1/ 2 1/ 14/ 13 Poll: O bam a, Rom ney deadlocked in NH - The Hil's Ballot Box The economy in New Hampshire, as in many other battlegrounds, continues to pose a problem for the president. Only 27 percent said the economy had improved in their state during Obama’s term, with 35 percent saying it had stayed the same and 32 percent saying it had worsened. Obama, however, is preferred on foreign policy, with 46 percent support to Romney’s 42. Seventy percent said they watched last Thursday’s debate between Vice President Biden and Romney running mate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.). Voters were deadlocked on who won the lone vice presidential debate, with 43 percent picking Biden, 42 percent Ryan and 15 percent unsure. Despite Romney’s recent surge in many swing-state and national polls, voters still expect Obama to be the winner in November. Forty-nine percent expect Obama to be reelected, with 36 percent believing Romney will win the presidency. New Hampshire is one of 12 swing states captured by Obama in 2008 that could determine the outcome of this year’s race. The poll was conducted from Oct. 12 to 14 and has a 4-point margin of error.

The poll of 500 likely voters finds some disconcerting signs for the president, who saw as much as a 15-point predebate lead in one poll: First, his job approval is stuck at 47 percent, below the "safe " 50 percent threshold for an incumbent seeking re-election. His approval-to-disapproval split is an even 47-47. By a 45-42 split, more voters in New Hampshire think that Romney has "the best plan to fix the economy." Romney also narrowly wins on the question of which candidate would "do more for New Hampshire." AP 32 percent of New Hampshire voters think the economy has gotten worse in the last four years, compared with 27 percent that think it has gotten better. 35 percent said it has stayed the same. Some positive signs for Obama: Generally, voters in New Hampshire trust Democrats with handling Medicare over Republicans (44-41). Obama still has a slight edge on foreign policy (46-42). And in the Big Bird debate, 49 percent of New Hampshire voters oppose cutting funding for PBS. “Although New Hampshire offers only four electoral votes in the presidential sweepstakes, it may be an important state for both candidates to actively campaign in,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, in a statement. Last week, Paleologos caused a bit of a stir when he said that he would no longer poll Virginia, Florida and North Carolina because he was certain the states would go for Romney.

Surrounded by brilliant fall foliage and a crowd of about 6,000 in Manchester's Veterans Park, the president stuck to the same energized line of attack he's taken since the debate Tuesday night. He accused Romney of failing to explain how he would pay for the cuts without adding to the deficit or shifting the tax burden to the middle class, and of trying to sell voters on a "sketchy deal." "He took another swing at it, and he whiffed," Obama said. "Instead of telling us how he'd pay for it, he said, 'I'll let you know after the election.' And then when I asked him about it, he said, 'I'm a business man, I know the numbers will work.' "I'm gonna let you in on a little tip — when a politician tells you that he's going to wait until after the election, it's not because their plan is so good, they don't want to spoil the secret," Obama said. Romney is proposing to cut all income tax rates by 20 percent, eliminate the estate tax and the alternative minimum tax, and maintain and expand tax breaks for investment income. He says he would pay for his plan by reducing or eliminating tax deductions, exemptions and credits, but hasn't specified which ones. His campaign cites studies by conservative academics and think tanks that say the plan will spur economic growth, generating enough additional money to pay for the tax cuts. "Today, President Obama only offered Granite State voters more misleading attacks to distract from his failed record, his reckless spending and his inability to present a discernible vision to move our country forward," Romney spokesman Ryan Williams said. The Tax Policy Center, a Washington research group, says in a study that the tax cuts proposed by Romney would reduce federal tax revenues by about $5 trillion over 10 years. The study concludes that there aren't enough tax breaks for the wealthy to make up the lost revenue, so the proposal would either add to the deficit or shift more of the tax burden onto the middle class. It was Obama's fifth trip this year to New Hampshire, which he won in 2008 but has been heavily contested this cycle. The latest poll — a Suffolk University/7NEWS survey conducted before Tuesday's debate — shows him even with Romney. "In 19 days, you get to choose between the top-down policies that got us into this mess, or the policies that are getting us out," he said. "In 19 days, you can choose to turn back the clock 50 years for immigrants, or gays or women, or you can stand up and say we're going to move forward." As he has in recent days, Obama also mocked Romney's remark during the debate that as Massachusetts governor, he received "whole binders full of women" as he sought to diversify his administration. Touting his support for programs that encourage young people to study science, engineering and math, Obama said he wants young women, as well as men, to thrive in such fields. "See, we don't have to order up some binders to find qualified, talented, driven young women who can learn and excel in these fields right now," he said. "And when these young women graduate, I want them to earn equal pay for equal work." Warming up the crowd before Obama's appearance, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., also stated that Obama "didn't need a binder to appoint women" to high-ranking positions. Shaheen, the first woman elected governor of New Hampshire and the state's first female U.S. senator, praised Obama's debate performance, saying, "We are back on track." www.seacoastonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?aid=/20121019/NEWS/210190355&template=printart 1/2 gleTr ibune. com , Nor t h 1/ Andover 14/ 13 , M A EagleTribune.com, North Andover, MA October 19, 2012 Obama rallies N.H. troops in battleground state Obama rallies supporters in Granite State By Doug Ireland [email protected] The Eagle-Tribune ---- — MANCHESTER — Only two days after President Barack Obama faced off in a debate with Republican challenger Mitt Romney, he was in the Granite State yesterday rallying support. The president’s appearance attracted a crowd of about 6,000 people to Veterans Memorial Park, where many Southern New Hampshire and Merrimack Valley residents waited hours to hear him speak. But when Obama stepped up to the podium at noon and delivered a rousing 27-minute speech, many later said it was definitely worth the three-hour wait. “Hello, New Hampshire,” Obama told the cheering crowd. “Are you fired up? I’m fired up.” The applause had started well before Obama took the stage. First, U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., asked the crowd for their support, outlined Obama’s accomplishments and criticized Republican challenger Mitt Romney’s proposed policies. Her granddaughter, Elle Shaheen, was one of two girls who sang the national anthem. The Rev. William Ferguson, a Pelham Congregational minister, said a prayer. Gov. John Lynch then introduced Obama, telling supporters, “The president clearly understands the American dream should be more than just a dream.” Obama immediately distanced himself from Romney, calling the former Massachusetts governor a salesman with a misleading sales pitch and a flawed economic plan. “What he’s selling is not a five-point plan, it’s really a one-point plan,” he said. “It’s the same philosophy that got us into this mess.” Obama attacked Romney’s tax plan, which reduces all income tax rates by 20 percent, eliminate the estates tax and the alternative minimum tax. It also maintains and expand tax breaks for investment income, he said. Romney said he would pay for his plan by reducing or eliminating tax deductions, exemptions and credits, prompting Obama to call the proposal “sketchy.” The only way to pay for it is by raising taxes, Obama said. “He has a tax plan that doesn’t add up, he has a jobs plan that doesn’t create jobs ... “ Obama said. “Mitt Romney is trying to sell you a sketchy plan. We don’t need a sketchy plan.” eaglet r ibune. com / newham pshir e/ x674148314/ O bam a- r allies- N- H- t r oops- in- bat t legr ound- st at e/ pr int 1/ 3 gleTr ibune. com , Nor t h 1/ Andover 14/ 13 , M A Romney is trying to sell you a sketchy plan. We don’t need a sketchy plan.” Obama highlighted some of his successes during the last four years, while also outlining his plan for the next four years if re-elected. Since taking office in 2009, Obama said the war in Iraq has ended and troops will soon be out of Afghanistan. In addition, the threat of terrorism has been reduced, especially with the successful capture and death of Osama bin Laden. When he became president in 2009, Obama said the nation was struggling with a 10 percent unemployment rate that has since dropped to 7.8 percent. The president also said he has cut taxes to help small businesses grow and reformed health care. Also in that time, Obama said, the United States has become less dependent on foreign oil, he has fought for the rights of women and to make higher education more affordable. “We need to keep moving forward,” he said. “We have more work to do. That’s why I’m running for a second term.” Obama left the podium to deafening applause — more than three hours after the first people started to fill the park. By 9 a.m., the line of people waiting to enter the park stretched several blocks. The crowd mingled as they awaited the president’s arrival. An enormous American flag was hung in the park, along with a large blue-and-white “Forward” campaign sign. There were occasional chants of “Four more years” — even two hours before Obama’s arrival — as the crowd grew larger and songs such as REO Speedwagon’s “Roll with the Changes” were blasted over a loudspeaker. But for 67-year-old Kathleen O’Brien, it was well worth the wait. The Atkinson woman is a diehard Obama fan who has supported him since first meeting the president while he campaigned at Mack’s Apples in Londonderry five years ago. This was her fourth trip to see Obama, whom she compared to Robert Kennedy. Attached to O’Brien’s red, white and blue scarf were six Obama campaign pins. “He is the most incredible person I’ve met in my life,” she said. “He has so much vision for our country.” While many Obama supporters at the event said they are confident the president will be re-elected, O’Brien admitted she was a little nervous. The latest poll, conducted before the debate by Suffolk University/7News, showed Obama and Romney in a dead heat in New Hampshire, considered a swing state. “God help us if the president isn’t elected back in,” O’Brien said. “I’m afraid my grandchildren will have to go to war.” eaglet r ibune. com / newham pshir e/ x674148314/ O bam a- r allies- N- H- t r oops- in- bat t legr ound- st at e/ pr int 2/ 3 gleTr ibune. com , Nor t h 1/ Andover 14/ 13 , M A There were many children in the crowd, including 13-year-old Ryan Doherty, also of Atkinson. His mother, Holly Doherty, 46, said the chance for her son, a Timberlane Regional Middle School student, to hear Obama was too good of an opportunity to pass up. “A lot of parents want them to stay in school, but this is a great learning experience,” she said. “It is a valid reason to miss school.” Rodney Benjamin, 17, of North Andover attended with his two sisters and mother. “You don’t get this chance every day,” he said. He said wanted to hear Obama outline his plan for improving access to higher education. “That is an issue that is really important to me and other teenagers,” he said. Rodney wasn’t disappointed. After the speech, he said Obama was “right on target.” Kathy Quimby, 61, of Plaistow said she came to hear Obama speak on women’s issues, especially access to health care. “That’s really important to me,” she said. Carmenza Bruff, 59, of Haverhill praised Obama’s health-care plan, saying it has improved access to medical services for the poor. “I strongly believe in him,” she said. “I hope he wins. If he doesn’t, I will be very sad.” Material from The Associated Press was used in this report. eaglet r ibune. com / newham pshir e/ x674148314/ O bam a- r allies- N- H- t r oops- in- bat t legr ound- st at e/ pr int 3/ 3 1/14/13 New Suffolk Poll Finds Obama, Romney Tied In NH « CBS Boston ~CBS Home News Local Politics Sports FOLLOW US Health Business Boston’s Best Health 59° Search WId "" ~ ' W .

The poll was conducted by Suffolk University in Boston. “Although New Hampshire offers only four electoral votes in the presidential sweepstakes, it may be an important state for both candidates to actively campaign in,” David Paleologos, of Suffolk polls, says in a written statement. “It would be especially worthwhile for Obama, given that his job approval-disapproval number also is fixed at 47 percent.” Obama leads among women, while Romney leads among men, the poll finds. "Obama led 50 percent to 46 percent among women but trailed Romney 49 percent to 43 percent among men." And Obama has a slight edge on favorability vs. unfavorability, in comparison to Romney. "Obama remains more personally popular than Romney, with a 50 percent favorable-44 percent unfavorable rating, compared to 48 percent favorable-46 percent unfavorable for the former Massachusetts governor," the poll finds. Additionally, the poll finds, "Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson received 2 percent; and 4 percent were undecided." But many Johnson voters break for Romney, the polls finds. "When a subset of 30 undecided and Gary Johnson respondents were given the choice between Romney or Obama only, Romney led 47 percent to 13 percent, with 40 percent remaining undecided."

Back Published: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 At 47% apiece, Obama, Romney tied in NH in latest poll By KEVIN LANDRIGAN Staff Writer CONCORD – A new, independent poll has President Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney tied in New Hampshire, each with 47 percent support, as the two candidates prepared for their second of three debates Tuesday night. Meanwhile, the tight race for governor is almost as close with Democratic candidate Maggie Hassan holding a three-point lead over Republican Ovide Lamontagne, 41 percent to 38 percent, well within the poll’s 4.4 percent margin of error. Libertarian candidate for governor John Babiarz got 4 percent and the rest were undecided. The Oct. 12-15 poll of 500 likely voters was carried out by Suffolk University after Romney’s strong performance in the first debate. Pollster David Paleologos said a troubling sign for the president is his job approval rating remains at 47 percent three weeks before the Nov. 6 election. The survey also found Gary Johnson, Libertarian presidential candidate and former New Mexico governor, is helping Obama because votes for Johnson, who got 2 percent in the poll, might otherwise go to the challenger, Romney. “Politics is full of ironies. Gary Johnson voters are predisposed to voting against the incumbent president, but Johnson’s presence on the New Hampshire presidential ballot is actually helping Obama,” said Paleologos, who directs Suffolk’s Political Research Center in Boston. “Those anti-incumbent voters – at least right now – aren’t finding their way to Mitt Romney.” Obama returns to this key swing state Thursday for a rally at Veterans Park in downtown Manchester. As with Romney’s Republican presidential primary win here last January, this poll found he was strongest in the two largest counties: Hillsborough (46-43 percent) and Rockingham County (54-43 percent) along the Massachusetts border. Obama was preferred over Romney (51-45 percent) in all remaining eight counties in the state. Otherwise, the presidential race was remarkably close on demographic and issue fronts in the survey. Obama led among women and Romney was preferred by men, but both by small margins. www.nashuatelegraph.com/print/?sid=2849338 1/2 1/14/13 NashuaTelegraph.com - Print Article Likewise, Romney held a slight edge as the candidate to best handle the economy while Obama came out in front but narrowly on foreign policy. About New Hampshire issues, 27 percent of likely voters thought the economy had improved in the past four years while 32 percent said it had gotten worse. And a plurality here disagreed with Romney’s call in the first debate to cut off federal support for public broadcasting, 49 percent against it, 35 percent for it and 16 percent undecided.

Romney had been fading in the Granite State before his spirited effort in the first presidential debate two weeks ago. A poll published on Oct. 1 by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center showed Obama with a 15-point lead. Last week, a UNH poll conducted partly before and partly after the debate in Denver gave the president only a 6-point edge. Now, the Suffolk poll, taken entirely after the first presidential debate and the lone vice presidential debate, shows Romney tied with Obama at 47 percent. The survey included 500 likely voters and had a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points. The Suffolk poll showed Romney with a slight edge on handling the economy, 45 percent to 42 percent, but Obama led on foreign policy, 46-42. Those two subjects are likely to figure prominently in the second presidential debate on Tuesday night in Hempstead, N.Y. Six percent of New Hampshire voters said they remain undecided or plan to vote for Libertarian Party candidate Gary Click to contact candidates or Johnson.

Swing state small businesses could loom large October 17, 2012 @ 6:43 pm By Jon Cook [1] In a very close presidential election race, small businesses in swing states could decide who wins or loses. Nearly 50 percent of small business owners in key swing states (Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin) favored Republican challenger Mitt Romney over President Barack Obama, according to a survey released last week by Manta [2] , an online small business community. Despite Romney’s lead among swing state small business owners, Obama was narrowing the gap. The president was the choice for 38 percent of respondents, up six percentage points from a previous Manta survey released in May. And while they may be leaning towards Romney, 56 percent of swing state voters still believed Obama would win the election. Greg Garrick, Manta’s vice president of marketing and communications, said the majority of small businesses in these states feel Romney will “be their champion,” but noted that they “don’t believe he has enough power to overcome Obama.” Garrick said Romney’s candid “47 percent” remark [3] likely hurt his ability to build a bigger lead, adding that his support among small business owners has dipped 6 percent since Manta’s May survey. “It seemed like the public perception about him after his comments were keeping him from gaining any further traction on Obama.” The latest survey polled 1,854 small business owners across the United States from September 20 to 28. However, it does not account for any momentum swings following this month’s presidential and vice presidential debates. While Romney got a boost from the first head-to-head debate in Denver, Colorado, Obama regained the momentum after last night’s town hall confrontation in Long Island, New York. A CNN poll of swing state voters who watched Tuesday’s debate, referenced by the New York Times [4] , showed Obama winning the latest battle by a 53-38 margin. However, a Suffolk University poll [5] , conducted just prior to that debate, showed New Hampshire voters were split 47-47. A poll by Public Policy Polling [6] showed Colorado voters, who watched the second presidential debate, gave the nod to Obama by a 48-44 edge. But the poll showed ultimately the debate would not factor much into the way Coloradans will vote in next month’s election. Just 37 percent said the debate made them more likely to vote for Obama, against 36 percent who support Romney. blogs. r eut er s. com / sm all- business/ 2012/ 10/ 17/ swing- st at e- sm all- businesses- could- loom - lar ge/ ?pr int =1… 1/ 2 1/ 14/ 13 Ent r epr eneur ial » Swing st at e sm all businesses could loom lar ge » Pr int Anne Landman, owner of Grand Junction, Colorado-based small business ThoughtOnBoard [7] , said she remains a staunch Obama supporter, despite having lost her full-time job earlier this year. Landman, whose company makes dry-erase boards with suction cups on the back to make them adhere to slick surfaces such as windows and refrigerators, said she prefers Obama’s stance on healthcare and women’s rights and admits she doesn’t trust Romney. “He’s been on every side of every issue so you really don’t know what he stands for,” said Landman, adding most of her Colorado small business colleagues are likely to vote for Romney. “We’re very conservative out here. I live in a development where there are other business owners who are very hard right wing.” As the battle intensifies for swing state voters, the Romney campaign has upped its ad spending in those states by more than $13 million, according to a CNN report [8] . “There’s definitely room within these small business owners’ minds to sway them,” said Garrick, noting 23 percent of national small business owners remain undecided. “I think they’re going to come out in mass this November.” IMAGE: U.S. Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney (L) and U.S. President Barack Obama gesture towards each other during the second U.S. presidential debate in Hempstead, New York, October 16, 2012.

A new poll showed Romney cutting Obama's once comfortable 12-point advantage in the Keystone State to just 4 points. Obama held onto a narrow 50-46 percent lead yesterday in a survey of likely Pennsylvania voters by the nonpartisan Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. The dramatic turnaround mirrors Romney's surge nationally and across swing states, including the major battlegrounds of Ohio, Florida and Virginia, since he scored a big win in the first presidential debate on Oct. 3. Nationally, Romney advanced to a 50-46 lead over Obama in a Gallup seven-day tracking poll released yesterday. The Gallup poll revealed that Obama had lost significant support among men, college graduates and Southern voters who backed him in 2008. In Pennsylvania, Romney's surge was fueled largely by white Catholic voters who back him by 56-43 percent, the Quinnipiac poll found. "Gov. Romney is coming on strong in the Keystone State, especially among white Catholics," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the polling institute. Romney had taken the lead among Pennsylvania male voters by 54-43, while Obama continued to win big with women voters by 57-39. Only 7 percent of Pennsylvania likely voters say they might change their minds in the three weeks before they cast their ballots on Nov. 6. Despite Romney's gains, he still faces long odds for capturing Pennsylvania and its prized 20 electoral votes toward the 270 needed to win the election. The state hasn't voted Republican in a presidential election since George HW. Bush won the White House in 1988. Romney had stopped running TV ads there and moved some of his campaign staff from Pennsylvania to help in must-win Ohio. But Romney's startling Pennsylvania rebound likely will force Obama to shore up support there, diverting resources from other battlegrounds. Romney gained on Obama despite Pennsylvania voters saying that Vice President Joe Biden, a native son and a Catholic, defeated Paul Ryan last week in the vice presidential debate, according to the poll. "That doesn't seem to be lifting the top of the ticket," Malloy said. The Obama campaign had to hope that the president's performance last night in the second presidential debate would blunt his challenger's momentum. Romney also has closed the gap in New Hampshire, where Obama has led consistently since the generalelection campaign got under way in April.

The race is now tied across most swing states, including Florida, Virginia, Colorado, Iowa and Nevada. Romney has even cut into Obama's once-formidable lead in Ohio. No Republican has won the White House without carrying Ohio. Romney campaign political director Rich Beeson yesterday said that victory was in sight in the Buckeye State. Wednesday , October 17, 2012 NEW YORK , NY 555 ,327 (1) Newspaper (D) 7 Main Suffolk University "Our campaign clearly has the momentum heading into these last few weeks, as evidenced by steady movement in the polls toward Governor Romney, and increased enthusiasm on the ground at our events," Beeson wrote in a memo yesterday. He noted that the Real Clear Politics average of Ohio polls shows Obama ahead by 2.2 points, down from the 6-point lead he had held for the past two weeks.

A new poll shows the Republican presidential nominee closing President Barack Obama's lead in the Keystone State from 12 percentage points in September down to 4 points. Obama leads Romney 50 percent to 46 percent, according to the Quinnipiac University survey, but Romney is improving thanks to increased support among white Catholics. "Pennsylvania voters say Vice President Joe Biden, a native son and a Catholic, won the debate and is more qualified than Rep. Paul Ryan to be president, but that doesn't seem to be lifting the top of the ticket," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, in a release accompanying the poll results. The survey has a margin of error Barack Obama and Mitt Romney campaign in Ohio. of plus or minus 2.5 percent. [PHOTOS: The 2012 Presidential Campaign Trail] In New Hampshire, another swing state, a separate poll shows Romney in a 47 percent-47 percent tie with Obama, where the president had maintained an edge in previous surveys. "Although New Hampshire offers only four electoral votes in the presidential sweepstakes, it may be an important state for both candidates to actively campaign in," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston. "It would be especially worthwhile for Obama, given that his job approval-disapproval number also is fixed at 47 percent." New Hampshire voters also were split on the vice presidential debate, with 43 percent saying Biden won and 42 percent saying Ryan did. The Suffolk University/7News poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent. Obama and Romney face off in their second of three presidential debates Tuesday night at Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y.

The Suffolk University/KSNV poll released Thursday found Obama leading Romney 47 percent to 45 percent with six percent undecided. On favorability, 50 percent of those surveyed said they have a favorable view of Obama while 45 percent said they have an unfavorable view. For Romney, 46 percent said they have a favorable view while 45 percent said they have an unfavorable of the Republican presidential nominee. The poll also found that on immigration Obama has a slight upperhand over Romney. Thirty-nine percent said that Obama has the better plan for dealing with immigration issues while 31 percent picked Romney. A plurality of voters — 47 percent — said they trust Democrats more than Republicans on reforming Social Security and Medicare. Thirty-six percent, meanwhile, said they preferred Republicans over Democrats on fixing the entitlement programs. The poll surveyed 500 Nevada voters between Oct. 6-9. It had a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points. The poll's findings came the same day as the first vice presidential debate and roughly a week after the first presidential debate between Romney and Obama. Romney is considered the winner of that debate. Since then polls have tightened in the presidential race and a number of national polls have shown Romney with a slight lead t hehil. com / blogs/ ballot - box/ polls/ 261449- poll- obam a- holds- slight - lead- over - r om ney- in- nevada?t m pl=co… 1/ 2 1/14/13 Poll: Nevada all tied up – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs October 11th, 2012 03:12 PM ET Share this on: Facebook Twitter Digg del.icio.us reddit MySpace StumbleUpon 95 days ago Poll: Nevada all tied up Posted by CNN Political Unit (CNN) - The race between President Barack Obama and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney remains tight in the battleground of Nevada, a poll released Thursday shows. Obama has a two-point advantage over Romney, 47% to 45%, in the Suffolk University/KSNV poll. The difference is within the poll's sampling error of plus or minus 4.4 points.

Obama's advantage is eight points, 50% to 42% in the state's most populous county, Clark County, and four points (47%-43%) in the second most populous county, Washoe County. Romney, however, leads in the other 15 counties 63% to 30%, according to the survey. The Nevada race for a U.S. Senate seat is also close: Sen. Dean Heller, the Republican, stands at 40% with Rep. Shelley Berkley, a Democrat, at 37%. The race has attracted over $13 million in spending by outside groups, according to FEC records. The conservative group Crossroads has aired a series of television ads sharply critical of Berkley. Independent candidate David Lory VanderBeek stands at 7% in the Senate poll. Two September, pre-debate polls of the battleground state found the presidential race there was similarly close. The CNN/ORC International survey released September 20 found the candidates three points apart, while the NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist Poll released September 28 found a two point margin. Nevada has six electoral votes and went to Obama in 2008 and President George W. Bush in 2004. Romney won the state's February caucuses with 50% of the vote. The Suffolk University/KSNV poll included 500 registered voters and 452 likely voters reached by phone. – CNN's Paul Steinhauser and Gregory Wallace contributed to this report Filed under: 2012 • Nevada 36 20 18 1 Tw eet Share 0 Comments are off.

In one set of polls, conducted by The Wall Street Journal, NBC News, and Marist College, President Obama and Mr. Romney are in a dead heat among likely voters in Florida (Obama 48 percent, Romney 47 percent) and in Virginia (Romney 48, Obama 47). In Ohio, Obama leads 51 percent to 45 percent. Photos: Denali Doubles race returns for 2013 Will TransCanada's new projects hurt chances for Alaska LNG? MOST READ Should FBI have kept a tighter leash on its Alaska militia mole? Tracking the elusive (and mythical) wolverines of Chugach State Park Will TransCanada's new projects hurt chances for Alaska LNG? Earlier this month, before the debate, Romney trailed in Ohio by eight percentage points, 51-43, according to the same poll. In Virginia, he trailed 4846, and in Florida, it was Obama 47, Romney 46. The other set of polls, by The New York Times, CBS News, and Quinnipiac University, showed slight gains for Romney among likely voters in Wisconsin, Virginia, and Colorado since September. In Wisconsin, Obama now leads 5047, compared with 51-45 a month ago. In Colorado, the race is still in a statistical dead heat, but with Romney now up 1 percentage point, 48-47, instead of down a point, where he was a month ago. And in Virginia, Obama still has a clear lead over Romney, 50-46, but down a point from September, when he led 51-46. Virginia is the only state that both polls surveyed, and if the results are averaged, Virginia is also in a dead heat. The last new swing-state poll out Thursday, by Suffolk University in Boston, shows Nevada likely voters going for Obama, but by only 2 percentage points, 47 percent to 45 percent – within the poll's margin of error of 4 percent. All of these states went for Obama four years ago, and if Romney is to unseat the incumbent, he has to win most of them. So, he still has his work cut out for him. The debate Thursday night between Romney’s running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan (R) of Wisconsin, and Vice President Joe Biden is a critical step along the way. Typically, vice presidential debates don’t matter, but in this case, Congressman Ryan has an opportunity to keep his ticket’s momentum going. Mr. Biden’s task is to halt that narrative of an incumbent administration on the ropes. Voters in the swing state polls concluded by a wide margin that Romney had won the Oct. 3 debate, though that didn’t shake most voters off their pre-debate choice. One mitigating factor, evident in the NYT/CBS/Quinnipiac poll, is the perception that the economy is improving, as seen in last week’s news that September unemployment dropped to 7.8 percent, down from 8.1 percent the month before. The biggest prize among swing states is Florida, with 29 electoral votes. If Romney loses there, he almost certainly cannot win the election. But if Florida goes for Romney, he still most likely has to win Ohio, the nation’s reining presidential bellwether state. Ohio has the longest record of voting for the winner, every election since 1964. No Republican has won the presidency without winning Ohio. The key to winning Ohio this cycle is early voting, says Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. According to the poll, almost 1 in 5 Ohio voters has already cast a ballot, and among them, Obama is www.alaskadispatch.com/article/poll-mitt-romney-rise-swing-states 1/2 1/14/13 Poll: Mitt Romney on the rise in swing states | Alaska Dispatch According to the poll, almost 1 in 5 Ohio voters has already cast a ballot, and among them, Obama is ahead 63 percent to 37 percent. “Among those who will vote on Election Day, there is only a two-point Obama-Romney difference,” Mr. Miringoff writes. The only caveat about Ohio’s role in the 2012 race is that it now has just 18 electoral votes, two fewer than it did four years ago. Depending on how the battle for swing states goes for each candidate, in the race to reach 270 electoral votes, that two point reduction could matter. Some political analysts are even talking about a possible rerun of 2000, when the winner of the popular vote (Democrat Al Gore) did not win in the Electoral College.

The race in Nevada is effectively tied between President Obama and Mitt Romney, according to a new Suffolk University/KSNV poll released on Thursday. With just under a month until the election, 47 percent of those polled support Obama, while 45 percent support the Republican nominee, falling within the margin of error. Of those polled, 6 percent are still undecided. It is worth noting, however, that the poll did include independent Virgil Goode and Libertarian Gary Johnson, who each polled at 1 percent. Following general trends across battleground states, the president is still seen more favorably among voters; this poll shows him at 50 percent—4 points higher than Romney. The president is also seen as stronger on the economy. When asked which candidate had a better plan to fix the economy, 45 percent of those polled sided with Obama and 42 percent said Romney. Obama still struggles with an approval rating, sitting at 48 percent. The same number of respondents disapprove of his job performance. David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston, credited Romney’s debate performance last week for the uptick. Of those polled, 74 percent of debatewatchers polled thought Romney won the matchup, while only 19 nationaljournal.com/2012-presidential-campaign/poll-presidential-race-tightens-in-nevada-20121011?pr… 1/2 1/14/13 Poll: Presidential Race Tightens in Nevada - NationalJournal.com percent said that Obama came out ahead. The poll highlighted several important issues facing Nevada voters in this election, including immigration and entitlement reform. Of those polled, 64 percent support the Dream Act. Obama also comes out ahead on this issue; as 39 percent thought Obama was better on immigration—8 points higher than Romney. Republicans attempted to highlight the party’s appeal to Latino voters during the GOP convention in August, showcasing several upand-coming Hispanic politicians, such as Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez. Republican leaders such as former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, however, have publicly recognized the party’s problems in reaching out to this demographic group. Nevada voters also placed more trust on Democrats with regard to Medicare and Social Security, 46 percent to 36 percent. However, this does not translate to Obama’s signature health care law: 45 percent generally thought it was bad, 1 point higher than those who approve of it. Democrats have called Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan’s budget harmful to entitlements. In the debate, Romney pushed for a voucher-based Medicare system. The poll was conducted with 500 registered Nevada voters between Oct. 6 and Oct. 9. The margin of error was 4.4 percentage points.

The Republican Party remains at a low point in terms of its popularity, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll, with a majority of voters (53 percent) saying they have an unfavorable view of the party and more than one in three (35 percent) saying they view Republicans in a strongly unfavorable light. The popularity of the GOP also continues to languish among several groups that could decide the election. While 52 percent of self-described moderates view the Democratic Party favorably, just 35 percent view the Republican Party favorably. Fully 60 percent of moderates view the GOP in a negative light, including 33 percent who view it very unfavorably. By contrast, just 11 percent of moderates see the Republican Party in a “strongly favorable” light. And while Republicans used to be able to draw from moderate and conservative Democrats — once referred to as “Reagan Democrats” — today just 11 percent of those voters have a positive view of the GOP. Even traditional GOP constituencies have dimming views of the party. Only about two-thirds of conservatives and tea party supporters have a positive impression of a party they vote for almost universally. All of which tells use one thing: The Republican Party’s brand continues to be, as former Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va.) said in the runup to the 2008 election, “dog food.” In fact, the GOP brand is actually worse than it was four years ago, with most of the numbers above falling by between five and 10 points over the last four years. “Romney’s asset as an outsider has not been utilized to rebrand the party,” Davis told The Fix. www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2012/10/03/republican-brand-still-dog-food/ 1/8 1/14/13 Republican brand: Still ‘dog food’ The good news for Republicans is that Democrats aren’t as popular either, though they continue to have about as many favorable reviews (48 percent) as unfavorable ones (46 percent). But Democrats had a very good year in 2008, so it’s not surprising to see their brand fall from a high point. The GOP brand, meanwhile, has fallen from a low point. Part of this is just party politics. The Republican Party as a whole has fewer members than the Democratic Party, while more independents lean slightly conservative but don’t identify with the GOP. So the GOP’s brand generally lags slightly behind the Democrats’. Where the GOP gets into trouble is when those independents don’t jump on board or when they get wooed into the Democratic camp. And Republicans are at risk of that. Now, we should make clear that party brand isn’t everything. After all, even as Republicans made huge gains in the House and Senate in 2010, their party brand was about where it is today and was actually worse than the Democratic brand in most polls — albeit slightly. So if the GOP made big gains in 2010 with a damaged brand, who’s to say it can’t win the White House with a damaged brand? It could certainly happen. The problem is that the 2010 race was all about one party: the Democrats. They controlled all the levers of power in Washington, and they were largely helpless to make the election about anything besides themselves. This year, Republicans control the House, and President Obama’s campaign has done a deft job of making the race — at least to some extent — into a choice rather than a referendum. That’s when the GOP’s candidates and brand start to matter. And just as Romney’s popularity and stumbles are something of a weight around his ankles, so too will be the party brand — both up and down the ballot. Still tight in Florida: While other swing state polls have shown the presidential race tipping toward Obama, one state has held relatively firm: Florida. A new Suffolk University poll is no exception, showing Obama at 46 percent and Romney at 43 percent. --... ales Hil 2.893% APR II!ndlngtrlX!

The Suffolk poll was conducted September 27-30, and is the sixth non-partisan, live operator survey of likely voters in Florida conducted over the past two weeks. The others are Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times (Sept. 18-24); Mason Dixon (Sept. 17-19); Washington Post (Sept. 19-23); American Research Group (Sept. 20-22) and Fox News (Sept. 16-18). The margin in the Suffolk survey is closer than in all but one of the other five polls. A CNN Poll of Polls which averages all six surveys puts Obama at 50% and Romney at 45%. President George W. Bush carried Florida in his 2004 re-election, but Obama turned Florida from red to blue four years ago. The Suffolk poll was released one day before the first presidential debate, which will be held Wednesday in Denver. The survey indicates that Floridians by a more than two to one margin think Obama is the better debater. In the state's U.S. Senate contest, the survey indicates Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson with a 40%-34% advantage over Republican Rep. Connie Mack, with one in five undecided. Nelson's edge over Mack is smaller in the Suffolk poll than in most other recent surveys. The Suffolk University/WSVN-Miami poll was conducted by telephone with 600 likely voters in Florida questioned. The survey's sampling error is plus or minus four percentage points.

The Hotline, National Journal Group, Inc. and 1/2 N: O ne m or e day — 1/ unt 14/ il13 t he debat e - The Hil's Ballot Box OVERNIGHT CAMPAIGN: One more day — until the debate By Emily Goodin, Cameron Joseph, Alexandra Jaffe and Justin Sink - 10/02/12 06:09 PM ET TOP STORY: Waiting for Wednesday President Obama and Mitt Romney were in debate prep on Tuesday, but their surrogates provided plenty of news. Vice President Biden said at a campaign rally that the middle class has been “buried” for the last four years. He made the remark while arguing Republicans will raise taxes on the middle class. “This is deadly earnest, man. This is deadly earnest,” Biden said. “How they can justify, how they can justify raising taxes on the middle class that has been buried the last four years — how in Lord's name can they justify raising their taxes with these tax cuts.” Republicans quickly seized on the comments. Paul Ryan said Republicans "agree" that the middle class had been "buried" by the struggling economy. "That means we need to stop digging by electing Mitt Romney the next president of the United States. Of course the middle class is being buried ... they're being buried by the Obama administration's economic failures," Ryan said. Biden appeared to retool his remark later in the day, saying the middle class had been "buried" under policies Romney and Ryan had been pushing. "The middle class was buried by the policies that Romney and Ryan supported," he said. Meanwhile, Romney floated a $17,000 cap on tax deductions, a proposal that could reconcile his pledge to lower tax rates with his promise to make the plan deficit-neutral. t hehil. com / blogs/ ballot - box/ ot her - r aces/ 259835- over night - cam paign- one- m or e- day- unt il- t he- debat e?t m … 1/ 6 N: O ne m or e day — 1/ unt 14/ il13 t he debat e - The Hil's Ballot Box found. According to the poll, 51 percent said they expected Obama to win, against 29 percent who named Romney as the victor. Obama has opened up an 8-point advantage over Romney, 47 percent to 39, in the critical swing state of Virginia, according to a Roanoke College poll. A CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll found 56 percent of registered voters want the government to develop a plan that lets illegal immigrants who have jobs in the U.S. become legal residents. Thirty-nine percent of those surveyed want the government to focus on a plan for stopping illegal immigration and deporting immigrants who have a job and are living in the country illegally. A Suffolk University poll in Florida found Obama with 46 percent support and Romney with 43 percent. AD WATCH: The conservative super-PAC backed by former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove announced it would purchase $11 million in television commercials this week — its largest one-week buy of the election — in a new campaign slamming President Obama's jobs record. The significant ad buy from American Crossroads comes on top of an additional $1 million radio buy and a $4 million television campaign targeting Senate races in North Dakota, Florida, Virginia and Montana. Mitt Romney's campaign released a new television ad charging Obama with raising taxes on the middle class as part of the president's signature healthcare legislation. Romney and the Republican National Committee attacked Obama on jobs and the national debt in a new Spanish-language ad, the second in less than a week focused on winning over Hispanic voters. The anti-abortion rights group Susan B. Anthony List is out with two ads — one slams Obama as an "abortion radical" while the other features a woman who survived an abortion attacking Obama on the issue. The ads are part of the group's planned $8 million campaign focused on the presidential and Senate races, and are supported by their super-PAC "Women Speak Out." The ads are running on broadcast TV in targeted markets in Ohio, Virginia and Florida. BATTLE FOR THE HOUSE: The House Majority PAC, a Democratic super-PAC, is up in six districts with new ads, most of which attack Republicans on entitlement spending. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released eight ads attacking seven Republicans in races nationwide. In New Hampshire, the DCCC targeted both Reps. Frank Guinta and Charles Bass in the 1st and 2nd districts, respectively. The ad against Bass charges him with following "the party line," particularly with his vote t hehil. com / blogs/ ballot - box/ ot her - r aces/ 259835- over night - cam paign- one- m or e- day- unt il- t he- debat e?t m … 3/ 6 Sun-Sentinel Date: Location: Circulation (DMA): Type (Frequency): Page: Section: Keyword: Wednesday, October 03 , 2012 FORT LAUDERDALE , FL 165,974 (16) Newspaper (D) 38 Local Suffolk University Florida voters split Poll keeps president, Romney neck and neck in the state, but most say Obama will win By ANTHONY MAN Staff writer A Florida poll released on the eve of Wednesday's debate shows President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney effectively tied in the Sunshine State - with most voters concluding Obama will end up winning the election. The Suffolk University/WSVN-Ch. 7 poll shows o bama WIth 46 percent of the vote and Romney with 43 percent. The poll's margin of error is plus or minus 4 percentage points, which means the two are running neck and neck. Florida has enough undecided voters and people who favor one candidate but might change their minds that the state and its 29 electoral votes - more than 10 percent of the total needed to win the presidency could go for Obama or Romney. Even so, most people, including a fair number who plan to vote for Romney, think Obama will win a second term on Nov. 6, the poll found. Regardless of who they're supporting, 62 percent of Florida voters see Obama as the winner, 29 percent think Romney will win and 9 percent aren't sure, according to the poll. Among the voters who are supporting Obama or Romney, the vast majority - 92 percent - said their minds are made up. A small but potentially decisive 7 percent of the voters who said they favor Obama or Romney said they might change their minds. Those voters, along with the 7 percent who told Suffolk/WSVN they are undecided, are the audience the candidates are courting in Wednesday night's nationally televised debate, the first of four. Obama is seen as the better debater by 52 percent of Florida voters polled, while Romney is seen as better by just 19 percent. With public expecations so low, Romney could shine with a good debate performance. In a tight race, third-party candidates could make a difference. The poll found 2.5 percent of those surveyed picked one of the 10 other candidates. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian, and Roseanne Barr, the actress running as a Peace and Freedom candidate, each got 1 percent. Suffolk/WSVN surveyed 600 registered Florida voters Thursday through Sunday. Other findings: • In the U.S. Senate race, voters favor U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., with 40 percent, over his challenger, U.S. Rep. Connie Mack, R-Fort Myers, who has 34 percent. The poll showed 20 percent undecided. • u.s. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Weston, was viewed favorably by 22 percent of the state's voters and unfavorably by 27 percent. Even though Wasserman Schultz gets lots of national media attention in her role as chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, most Floridians don't know much about her. A total of 51 percent told pollsters they'd never heard of her or didn't know enough to offer an assessment. [email protected] or 954-356-4550 Page 1 of 1 © 2012 Sun-Sentinel Co. All Rights Reserved.

They've been holed up for days practicing their jabs and sucker punches for the big debate. But Obama and Romney both have glass jaws when it comes to hardhitting questions about the economy, taxes and health care. The president has a huge blind spot in explaining his broken promises to fix the economy, end partisan gridlock in Washington and rein in runaway federal spending and mounting public debt. Obama won't be able to run away from the blistering combination of facts and figures that define America's economic slump: unemployment still above 8 percent, an anemic 1.3 percent economic growth, a record 46.7 million Americans on food stamps, and a crushing $16 trillion national debt. And he'll have to take it on the chin when confronted with the fact that his signature legislative accomplishment - ObamaCare - remains woefully unpopular. Likewise, Romney will find himself on the ropes fending off questions about the still-unde- fined details of his plan to reform the income-tax code. It will take some fancy footwork for the Republican to dance around his own immense wealth and the relatively low incometax rate he enjoys, as he lays out his plan to reduce everyone's income taxes by 20 percent. He'll also have to bob and weave to avoid acknowledging the striking similarities between ObamaCare and the RomneyCare program he championed as Massachusetts governor. The format won't give the contenders any room to dodge those topics. The 90-minute debate - the first of three before the election will be divided into six IS-minute segments: three on the economy and one each on health care, governing and the role of government. Both men yesterday took a break from their grueling debate workouts. Romney went out for lunch to a Chipotle restaurant in Denver, accompanied by his debate sparring partner, Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio), who stands in for Obama in the practice sessions. Asked by a reporter whether he was primed for his debut presidential debate, Romney answered, ''I'm getting there." More than 750 miles away in Henderson, Nev., Obama broke training to visit the nearby Hoover Dam. The president had been hunkered down for three days at a desert resort in Henderson, about 15 miles southeast of Las Vegas, for what his campaign calls "debate camp." Obama said he made the outing to the historic Hoover Dam "because it's spectacular and I've never seen it before." Tonight's a big night for Obama, and not just because of the debate. It's also his 20th wedding anniversary. The president said he and wife Michelle will celebrate their anniversary Saturday. The debate is crucial for both candidates, as Obama tries to hold on to his lead in crucial swing states and Romney tries to reverse that trend. Obama leads 46-43 percent in the must-win state of Florida, according to a Suffolk University/7NEWS poll released yesterday. The president even leads in swing state New Hampshire, which is next door to Romney's home state of Massachusetts. Obama is up 51-43, breaking the crucial 50percent threshold, according to a survey by Public Policy Polling. [email protected] Page 1 of 2 © 2012 NYP Holdings Inc. All Rights Reserved.

The survey which had a margin of error of 4 percent shows the presidential campaign in Florida remains tight, with Obama winning support from 46 percent of the voters and Romney from 43 percent. Some 7 percent were undecided. The Suffolk poll also showed U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson with 40 percent of the vote in the Senate race over U.S. Rep. Connie Mack IV, who had 34 percent. But the survey showed 20 percent of the voters were undecided. Here is the release from Suffolk: BOSTON – President Barack Obama leads Republican Mitt Romney by 3 points (46 percent to 43 percent, with 7 percent undecided, according to a Suffolk University/7NEWS (WSVN-Miami) poll of likely voters in Florida. The poll is well within the survey’s 4 percent margin of error. “On the eve of the first debate, both Barack Obama and Mitt Romney know the importance of each percentage point in a state like Florida,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston. “Not only are the remaining undecided voters critical, but so are the voters of all the third-party candidates here – and there are many.” capitolcomments.blogs.theledger.com/…/suffolk-poll-shows-presidential-race-remains-tight-in-florida/ 1/4 1/14/13 Suffolk poll shows presidential race remains tight in Florida | Capitol Comments The Suffolk University/7NEWS (WSVN-Miami) poll is the first Florida survey taken this year to include all 12 of the Presidential party candidates who qualified for the Florida ballot. Libertarian Gary Johnson, Green Party nominee Jill Stein, and Peace and Freedom Party nominee Roseanne Barr were each favored by 1 percent of voters polled. One or more voters, but less than 1 percent, chose Peta Lindsay (Party for Socialism and Liberation), Tom Hoefling (American Independent Party), or Ross C. “Rocky” Anderson (Justice Party of Florida). U.S. Senate race In the Florida race for U.S. Senate, the incumbent, Democrat Bill Nelson (40 percent) led Republican Connie Mack (34 percent), with Chris Borgia at 4 percent and Bill Gaylor at 1 percent. Twenty percent of Florida voters remained undecided in that race. Ballot questions In a recurring Florida church-state issue, 52 percent of voters opposed a proposed amendment that would give users of public services the option to spend those public dollars at a religious institution, while 28 percent supported the amendment. Meanwhile 75 percent of voters supported an amendment that would allow for property tax discounts for disabled veterans, even if they weren’t Florida residents when they entered the military, while 13 percent were against it. The abortion issue split voters, with 44 percent supporting an amendment that would prohibit the use of public funds for abortions or health benefits coverage that includes coverage for abortion, with exceptions for cases of rape, incest or if the mother’s life were in danger. Forty percent opposed the amendment, and 15 percent were undecided. Favorability in presidential race Romney continues to struggle with his likability. His 45 percent favorable rating is 3 points higher than in a survey the Suffolk University Political Research Center conducted in May; yet his unfavorable rating is also up 2 points, to 47 percent today. Obama has been consistently more popular, with a 51 percent favorable and 46 percent unfavorable rating. High expectations for Obama in Debates Floridians appear to expect that the upcoming debates will be no contest, with 52 percent of likely voters saying Obama is the better debater, 19 percent saying Romney will prevail, and 26 percent undecided. “This ‘debate expectations’ finding mirrors last Thursday’s Suffolk University poll of likely Virginia voters who also said Obama was a better debater by more than a twoto-one margin. Voters in these key battleground states are teeing up an opportunity for Mitt Romney to exceed low expectations and close the gap. But if Barack Obama lives up to his billing, he could put the race away,” said Paleologos. Methodology The statewide survey of 600 registered Florida voters was conducted Sept. 27-30, 2012, using live telephone interviews of landline and cell phone users. The margin of error is +/-4 percent at a 95 percent level of confidence. Be Sociable, Share! Tw eet 0 Like 0 0 Share StumbleUpon You Might Be Interested In Did Scott inflate health care costs?
