(CBS) Presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama leads Republican counterpart John McCain 45 percent to 39 percent in the latest CBS News/New York Times poll of registered voters nationwide.

The six percentage point spread is unchanged since June, when Obama led McCain 48 percent to 42 percent. But more than 1 in 10 voters now say they are undecided between the candidates - twice as many, percentage-wise, as last month - and 28 percent of those who did express a preference say they might still change their mind.

The race between McCain and Obama appears to be more fluid than the 2004 battle between Democratic nominee John Kerry and President George W. Bush. Four years ago this month, just 6 percent of those surveyed were undecided between the candidates. And only 20 percent of those asked indicated their minds weren't yet made up.

So, Obama is winning, but this year could be a blow either way. The UDs and uncertain could be an Obama advantage.

Here is the most entertaining question from the poll, from the section on race relations:

"Just as your best guess, about what percentage of all Americans are black: less than 10%, between 10 and 20%, between 20 and 30%, between 30 and 50%, and more than 50%?"

answer   %age of respondents who gave that answer
< 10%     1%
10-20%   21%
20-30%   32%
30-50%   32%
> 50%     9%
DK/NA     5%

71% of Americans overestimate the number of African Americans, eh?  I can't say I'm surprised.  I want them to do the same question about the Jews.
