Obama Leads by 19 Among Those Who Have Already Voted

Barack Obama leads John McCain by a 52% to 36% margin in Pew's nationwide survey of
1,325 registered voters. This is the fourth consecutive survey that has found support for
the Republican candidate edging down. In contrast, since early October weekly Pew surveys
have shown about the same number of respondents saying they back Obama. When the
sample is narrowed to those likely to vote, Obama leads by 53% to 38%

2. Alan Abramowitz's point prediction

For this election is Obama 54.3%, McCain 45.7% (that's share of the two-party vote, which is a fancy way of saying the vote share after 3rd parties are excluded). The model he's using, the "time for Change" model (seems prophetic, I know) has been the most accurate over the last few election cycles. He predicted the outcome (without the point prediction, b/c his model uses data he wouldn't have had at that point) of this race four years ago.
