Bush Gains In Post-Convention Poll
NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 2004


One week after their convention, the Republican ticket of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney hold a seven-point lead over Democrats John Kerry and John Edwards among registered voters surveyed in a new CBS News poll.

The Republicans’ gain in voter support comes about through two changes that appear to have happened at that convention – a major improvement in the President’s approval ratings on handling terrorism (already the area where he scored best), and significant negative changes in perceptions of the Democratic nominee.

The Bush ticket’s four-point post-convention gain in support comes in part from some weakening of Kerry support among Democrats, but especially from gains with independent voters. In this poll, for the first time since last spring, Mr. Bush holds a clear lead with Independents.

Nine of ten Republicans say they will vote for Mr. Bush, but only eight of ten Democrats now say they will vote for Kerry. <snip>
