For the third straight day, Gallup Poll Daily tracking shows Barack Obama and John McCain tied in national registered voter preferences for the fall election, each now with 44% of the vote.

Today's report is based on the average of the latest three nights of interviewing, June 24-26, and is unchanged from yesterday. Gallup's June 22-24 average, released on Wednesday, also showed a tie, but with each candidate receiving 45% of the vote.

From a broader perspective, there has been little major change in the race for the entire month, with Obama either tying McCain or leading the race by a slim margin throughout June. This relative stability is not unexpected in the summer months when no actual voting is taking place, and when voters' attention may be diverted elsewhere unless and until a major news event occurs with the potential to disrupt the structure of the race.

It will be interesting to see what effect today's Unity rally might have on this...

2. I saw that and I don't understand

these numbers when we keep hearing that Obama is way ahead in other polls.

Even on Gallup, it says Obama beats McCain on most character ratings, but then we see they're tied. And he's actually lost his slight lead. :(

4. GOOD.

Because regardless of what the polls say, that's how we have to play it.

Don't look at the scoreboard...DO NOT LET UP.

This cannot be close...we need to push like we are way behind to defeat their smears...and DIEBOLD.
