Warming Up To Obama: President’s Lead Ticks Up In Florida, Colorado
Source: TPM
The bounce President Obama received from the Democratic National Convention has extended to swing states, pushing small leads in Florida and Colorado higher, according to new numbers from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP).
Obama leads Republican nominee Mitt Romney 50 percent to 46 percent in a new poll of Florida, and 51 percent to 45 percent in Colorado.
“What’s happened over the last three weeks in Florida is pretty simple,” said Dean Debnam, president of PPP in a statement. “Voters have warmed up to Barack Obama and they’ve cooled on Mitt Romney, and as a result Obama’s seen an increase in his lead.” And in Colorado? “Romney’s going to need to get it turned around soon to have a chance at winning the state,” Debnam said.
In both states, the president outpaced Romney on which candidate would be better to handle the economy, edging the former governor by 4 points in Florida and 3 points in Colorado. Obama has trailed nationally throughout most of the campaign on who would be better to spur growth, but has moved to a slight lead on the metric after the conventions and as data has showed Americans are feeling more rosy about the economy.
