He's at 52 percent approval ratining and they want us to believe he will only get 48 or 49 percent of vote depennding on rather you take likely voters or registered voters more serious.
If they have Obama at 52 percent approl rating we could have Obama 52 Romney 47 Indepenet and third partys 1 tomorrow.

(4,551 posts)6. Do they acknowledge the contradiction in their final polling report today?
Does Gallup not find it odd that Obama is over 50% Approval and yet behind in their poll?

To be drawn here? 52% approval for an incumbent and um I dunno re-election???
