COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The race for president is a dead heat in Ohio, according to the latest Ohio Poll released Thursday by the University of Cincinnati.

Sen. John Kerry is supported by 48 percent of Ohio's likely voters, according to the poll, while President George W. Bush is supported by 46 percent. One percent support Independent candidate Ralph Nader, while another 1 percent support another third-party candidate. Four percent of those polled are undecided on their presidential choice.

The poll was conducted between Aug. 11 and Aug. 17.

The Ohio Poll sampled the opinions of 812 likely voters from throughout the state. There is a margin of error of 3.4 percent.

2. Guess Swift Lies isn't working???

I thought Ohio was one of 3 states getting saturated with the Swift Lies ad? Kerry should be down by 10 now. This is the 2nd poll this week showing a Kerry lead in Ohio. BRING IT ON!!!!

3. Kerry 301, Bush 213 in current estimate.

Support for Kerry has softened in NM and WI, making those states dead heats.

On the positive side, CO is now a dead heat.

This is on the knife's edge people!

I normally pay no attention to Gallup but now it has been verified. Good sign.

5. This is more good news. Remember, if Kerry wins Ohio

the election is over. No Republican has ever won the WH without winning Ohio. However, Democrats have, including JFK.

6. I trust this poll

It will be close but Kerry can win it. He has to keep working hard in Ohio. Why Gore gave up on it in 2000 is beyond me.

7. 48-46 is a dead heat? No, 48-48 is. Too close to call, maybe, but

not a dead heat.
