Hoosier State Swing?

A new SurveyUSA poll came out today with results from Indiana (11 EC votes). They showed Obama leading McCain 48 - 47 percent among 627 likely Hoosier voters. While this is a statistical tie it is still an amazing result from a state that went Bush by more than 20 points in '04.

In conjunction with the Quinnipiac poll released last week this is good news for Obama. Quinnipiac University polls are historically the most accurate of the major pollsters. The most recent release shows Obama leading McCain in all three of the big swing states. In Florida Obama edges McCain 47 - 43 percent, in Ohio Obama tops McCain 48 - 42 percent, and in Pennsylvania Obama leads McCain 52 - 40 percent.
