Democrats give Obama's speech rave reviews, with 62% saying it was an excellent speech and another 21% describing it as good. A majority of independents rate Obama's speech as either excellent (27%) or good (25%), but Republicans were less impressed (12% excellent and 25% good).

In addition to measuring reaction to Obama's speech, the poll attempted to assess the impact of the convention more broadly on the public. Forty-three percent of Americans say they are more likely to vote for Obama as a result of what they saw or read about the convention; 29% say they are less likely.
