President 2012 Poll Watch: Obama Loses the Independent Vote
Posted by Flap in Barack Obama, Polling, President 2012According to the latest Pew Poll.
The sizeable lead Barack Obama held over a generic Republican opponent in polls conducted earlier this year has vanished as his support among independent voters has fallen off. Currently, 41% of registered voters say they would like to see Barack Obama reelected, while 40% say they would prefer to see a Republican candidate win in 2012. In May, Obama held an 11-point lead.
Of course, this is a national poll and does not reflect the diversity of the states. But, not a good sign for the President’s re-election prospects.
