1. I guess a 20 point lead might be considered an "edge"

3. From the article:

Twenty-seven percent of Iowa adults surveyed said they had already voted. Kerry leads Bush, 52 percent to 41 percent, among that group of early-bird voters. Among the 73 percent who said they definitely would vote on Tuesday, Kerry and Bush are tied.


If Kerry already has an 11% lead in people who have already voted and he and Bush are tied in the ones left, that looks to me like Kerry at least is 11% ahead...or am I reading that wrong?

4. A Little, Sir

President Kerry is ahead by a bit more than a tenth in a bit over a quarter of the voters. If the remaining three-quarters or so are tied, his lead would be about three percent....
