Nevertheless, if Mr. Romney can put these states' combined 39 electoral votes back into the GOP column, the Electoral College vote would be 319 for Mr. Obama, 219 for Mr. Romney.

That is Karl Rove not Rasmussen, though I find it entertaining that you are equating the two.

It seems to me that Liberals here posted that 319 when it was current.

I seriously doubt Rasmussen ever showed 319. It is Rasmussen after all and they have almost always had Romney up or tied for a very long time.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns the vote from 43%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and seven percent (7%) are undecided. Romney’s lead is a bit larger when leaners are included.


In Ohio, the candidates are tied at 45% each. Ohio remains one of 12 states with 156 Electoral Voters that are either Toss-Ups or Leaners in the Rasmussen Reports Electoral College Projections.


Initial voter reaction to Romney's new running mate Paul Ryan is modestly positive. Fifty percent (50%) have a favorable opinion of him. He is seen as politically conservative by seven-out-of-10 voters which places him as far to the right as Obama is to the political left. Political analyst Michael Barone notes that the selection of Ryan puts the nation’s entitlement crisis at the center of this year’s campaign.


A new report by the Treasury Department estimates that the auto bailouts will cost the government $25 billion. Fewer than half of all voters recognize that the government lost money on these bailouts. Upon learning that the government lost money, just 29% consider them a success. Fifty-nine percent (59%) consider the auto bailouts a failure.



When it comes to their child’s education, large majorities believe parents should have a choice when it comes to prayer in school, what the students wear and how much of the year they spend in class. Just 23% give our nation’s public schools good or excellent grades.

Only 27% believe it's ever appropriate for the government to make investments in private companies. Sixty-six percent (66%) believe most government contracts are given to the company with the most political connections rather than the one that can provide the best service for the best price.

Rassmussen usually has a margin of error of +/-3. The link is to a pay page.
