Three polls of Ohio were released over the weekend. Combined they indicated President Obama still holds a small edge over Mitt Romney in the most important swing state this election. Both PPP and CNN show Obama with a four point lead but a poll by Ohio newspapers has the race tied.
PPP (10/26-28)
Barack Obama 51%
Mitt Romney 47%
Undecided 2%CNN (10/23-25)
Barack Obama 50%
Mitt Romney 46%
Neither 2%
Other 1%
No Opinion 2%Ohio Newspaper Organization (10/18-23)
Barack Obama 49%
Mitt Romney 49%
Other 1%
Don’t know 1%
It should be noted that the Ohio newspaper poll is the oldest of the three polls and there is some indication the race may have moved in Obama’s direction in the last several days. For example the PPP poll from last week found Obama up by only one point in Ohio.
The polls show President Obama is dominating with the early vote. According to PPP over a third of the vote has already been cast in Ohio and among those people Obama is leading 63 percent to 36 percent. The Obama ground game has managed to bank an impressive amount of their vote already. This is going to be a very difficult build in advantage for the Romney team to overcome.

Have those early votes actually been counted yet?
Actually ALL the votes have been pre counted before being cast to simplify things.
Unfortunately, Ohio still has a Republican Secretary of State.

The 10% swing in vote for Romney is already built into the software of the voting machines with a self destruct so it can’t be traced afterward. (read about how this is done with the software after a prior stolen election in Ohio. One way is to change every x number of votes cast for Obama to the Romney column. They decide how much is needed and do accordingly. The way they install is to say a security patch needs to be installed prior to voting to prevent hacking. They like this way because changing the tally is much easier to trace. This is impossible to trace.)
No way to challenge this after Romney has been declared the winner. Won’t happen and probably no way to prove otherwise with a paper trail.
And you will hear all kinds of reasons why the exist polls don’t match the results.
Get ready for President Willard.
Perfect. The machines will do the rest. Mission accomplished.
Well it seems that having your own citizens murdered, starting unconstitutional wars, and letting torturers go free are no barrier to re-election. Future politicians will take note, I’m sure.
Just to add, the patch is easy to install. Send the private company workers out when they are to be certified. Or they tell the precincts a patch needs to be installed.
Choose places that have NO paper trail aside from how many people came into vote. Or is there is some kind of paper trail don’t worry, because the vote never registers for who they originally voted for, just the switch that the machine made.
They have been setting up the exit polls meme of not matching for a few elections now. Never explained it. Just repeat.
Add that the early voting, even if Democrats outnumber Republicans by large numbers, went overwhelming for Romney because they are so unhappy with Obama.
This is a done deal when Obama
threwlost that first debate so badly and his number slipped dramatically.Much easier to pull this off when Obama is so tight in the polls rather then with the large lead he had.
The Ohio newspaper poll always has at least a 3% swing to the Republican statewide candidate, because they oversample the Cincinnati suburbs and undersample Democratic strongholds like Cuyahoga County.
I wouldn’t take that one too seriously. Rasmussen has even a worse record here; off by about 4% in the Republican’s favor. PPP leans in the other direction, but not as much. I’d say Obama is sitting right at 49% and third party candidates will probably get at least 1%, maybe 2.
IOW, Romney’s lost Ohio. Period.
I’ve thought that the fix was in in Ohio about a month ago. Of course, when anyone talks about how voting machines can be manipulated the MSM categorizes such talk as a “conspiracy theory.” Most polls have Obama up there 4-5%, but already today the GOP shill , Rasmussen, has Romney ahead in Ohio. Just a precursor to getting ready for the GOP to steal another election in Ohio, just as they did in 2004. If all the polls show a 1-2% Obama lead by election day it then makes it much easier to manipulate the votes compared to a 4-5 point spread. That would look too fishy. These thieves will make it all look so plausible.
Funny, in a savage kind of way.
I thought the PTB and the MOTU had already decided to “keep” Obama and that Romney was part of that strategy.
It’ll be interesting, but Ohio and WI will “punch” Romney’s ticket back to obscurity.
Not if the patch remains.
As we speak, Oscar, as we speak.
They write in an erase (self destruct) on the flipping part.
Willard’s using his downtime to polish the scum on his “integrity” creds
Willard and Ann flew the decorator to them to pick the new color schemes. After all, transition time is short and there’s so much decorating to be done.
Nancy could advise them. They only have to ask.
Ohio is moving in President Obama’s direction, and so is Virgina!
After Romney got a bump in the polls and it looked like he might have a chance to win the election, a lot of people took a second look at him, and decided to either stay home, or vote for someone else. By default that brings President Obama’s numbers up.
I agree.
That almost always happens in a two person race.:-)
Unemployment drop down to 5 % in the new report,that’s gonna help Obama.
