Newsweek Poll: Obama Leads 53-40

[VADem11]

Obama is leading 53% to 40% among registered voters and 53-41 among likely voters. He was up 52-41 among registered voters two weeks ago. This poll basically confirms other recent national polls with Obama leading by 10-14 points and his numbers in the low 50s while McCain is stuck in the low 40s. Obama's favorable rating is at 62% and is up from the last poll while McCain's favorable rating is at 50%.

This paragraph is crucial:

"The new poll suggests Obama is consolidating his support across demographic groups. He now leads McCain in every age group, even among voters 65 and older, who choose him over McCain 48 percent to 42 percent. He leads handily among men, 52 percent to 42 percent, and among women, 54 percent to 39 percent. He now leads McCain by 46 percent to 44 percent among working class whites, a dramatic reversal from April, when McCain led him in that group 53 percent to 35 percent."

It's looking good right now but we can't let up. We only have 10 more days until we can elect Barack Obama President of the United States.
