Gallup National Daily Tracking Poll Clinton 44 (+1), Obama 41 (+2), MOE +/- 3%

[MadBadger]

PRINCETON, NJ -- Gallup Poll Daily tracking shows Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as close as they have been since the polling program started at the beginning of 2008. Forty-four percent of Democratic voters nationwide support Clinton, while 41% support Obama, within the poll's three-point margin of error. The data suggest that Obama has gained slightly more -- at least initially -- from John Edwards' departure from the race. In the final tracking data including Edwards in all three days' interviewing (Jan. 27-29 data), Clinton had 42%, Obama 36%, and Edwards 12%. Since then, Clinton's support has increased two points and Obama's five. Tomorrow's release will be the first pure post-Edwards three-day rolling average.


Obama is picking up more Edwards support than Clinton it appears.

7. huh? how pointless is that? JE is gone and now Obama and HIllary

are virtually tied in the Gallup tracking poll and he's only 6 pts back in Rasmussen. He's made big gains in the last week. You don't like it, but that's the way it is.
