Pennsylvania may be in play after all.
In a blow to
the Obama campaign and its media allies, who have proclaimed the
election over, a new Susquehanna Polling and Research poll to be
released Thursday morning shows the race in Pennsylvania is a
statistical tie.
If Obama loses Pennsylvania, his
chances of winning re-election are slim and none with slim last seen
heading west on the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
Most polls
had Obama pulling away with the race in the Keystone State, but the
Susquehanna Poll is the most recent sampling of likely voters. It shows
Barack Obama with 48 percent support compared to 47 percent for Mitt
Romney. The Susquehanna poll was conducted on Sept. 17.
The
full poll results will be released at 10 a.m. Thursday during a
telephone conference with media by Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Rob Gleason
and Jim Lee, president of Susquehanna Polling and Research.
The
Pennsylvania poll, coming on the heels of an Associated Press/GfK Poll
that shows he national race is also a statistical tie (Obama 47% -
Romney 46%) means the race is anyone's to win with 50 days left until
Election Day.
