More Bad News: President Obama’s Numbers Are Plummeting in Two Key Swing States

Tweet

A Pew poll released yesterday shows Romney has overtaken President Obama in the polls. According to the poll, 49 percent of likely voters support Mitt Romney compared to just 45 percent who support President Obama. Six percent of those polled remain undecided. President Obama had an eight point lead among likely voters in the same poll prior to the debate.

Not only are Obama’s numbers falling in general, they’re also falling in swing states that Obama must win if he hopes to be reelected.

New polls in both Michigan and Pennsylvania show Obama’s lead narrowing to only 3 points. Worst of all, the Michigan poll is from Democratic pollster Foster McCollum White Baydoun, which means the poll does not skew Republican. The Pennsylvania poll is a non-partisan poll from Siena College.
