Polling Update - September 28th

WE'VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com

One day of data after Friday's debate, but won't see the full effect until Tuesday's releases. Obama is now at 50% in 3 of the 4 tracking polls.

Rasmussen Tracking Poll: Obama 50, McCain 44 (Yesterday: Obama 50, McCain 44)
Hotline: Obama 47, McCain 42 (Yesterday: Obama 48, McCain 43).
Daily Kos: Obama 50, McCain 43 (Yesterday: Obama 49, McCain 43). (Sat. sample: 51-42)
Gallup: Obama 50, McCain 42 (Yesterday: Obama 49, McCain 44).

Four poll average: Obama 49.25, McCain 42.75 (Obama 49 , McCain 43.5).

Here's the overall national trend from Pollster.com in a cool new embeddable format.

If you go to Gallups breakdown of the debate questions in particularly asked, it is quite reassuring. In fact it should be a link here. More independants thought Obama won. More people walked away with a more favorable impression of Obama. More people felt more confident in Obama's ability to handle the Economy while more people walked away feeling LESS confident in McCain's ability to handle the economy. Finally, and this is a treat, pretty much an equal amount of people felt more confident in Obama's ability to handle foreign policy as did McCain.

Now that is what I call a debate win!

Now, time to update the Prez forecast! woohoo!
