OH-Hill Research (R)/Mellman Group (D): Obama by 8

[Tender Branson]

A little older poll though:

46% Obama
38% Romney

The survey—conducted from Oct. 3 (the date of the first debate) to Oct. 7 - found President Obama leading Mitt Romney in Ohio by 46% to 38% with 14% undecided, while Romney was ahead in Florida, 47% to 43%, with 7% undecided.

It's going to be quite amusing to see Republicans hacks try to discredit this while defend the Florida poll.

Mellman Group (D) conducted the Ohio poll alone.  Hill Research (R) conducted the Florida poll alone.  That might explain why both polls are further from the mean in the direction of expected bias.

Quite old but post-first debate at least.

12 point spread between Ohio and Florida? Yeah...no. Sure, Ohio seems to be more Dem compared to average this election than before but that seems pretty crazy.

Too old and taken in the middle of the debate.

Have you guys read this poll?  First impression was they'd have to go in coffee houses to get people to respond to this, it's pretty lengthy poll on foreign policy......


as far as OHIO, 14% undecideds, no one else is showing that....

A little old? The last day of interviews was almost 2 full weeks ago!

Actually, this poll was posted before the Gravis one.

Nobody cares about "Gravis Marketing". Their last Ohio poll actually had Romney in the lead.
