Washington Post-ABC News Poll 52-43 Obama over McCain
This Washington Post-ABC News poll was conducted by telephone September 19-22, 2008, among a random national sample of 1,082 adults, 916 registered voters and 780 likely voters. The survey includes additional interviews with randomly selected African Americans, for a total of 163 black respondents. The added interviews (commonly referred to as an "oversample") were completed to ensure there were enough African American respondents for separate analysis; the group was not over-represented in the reported results from the full sample. The results from the full survey have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points. Error margins are higher for subgroups. Sampling, data collection and tabulation by TNS of Horsham, Pa.

6. that makes you wonder, though, doesn't it?
How many African-Americans are included in the other polls? Any at all? One or two? Interesting.

7. 10 point lead.
I can't wait until election day. I sense 20 point lead might be around the corner.
