Romney leads Obama 49-47 in 11 swing states combined, Rasmussen, 10/14

 .
10/14/12, "Daily Swing State Tracking Poll," Rasmussen Reports

"The full Swing State tracking update offers Rasmussen Reader subscribers a combined view of the results from 11 key states won by President Obama in 2008 and thought to be competitive in 2012. The states collectively hold 146 Electoral College votes and include  

Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, 
Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, 
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin....

In the 11 swing states, Mitt Romney earns 49% support to Obama’s 47%. One percent (1%) likes another candidate in the race, and two percent (2%) are undecided.

This is the sixth day in a row Romney has led the daily Swing State Survey, continuing to reflect the modest bounce he earned from the first presidential debate. Prior to that, the president had led for 17 of the previous 19 days, and the candidates had been tied twice. Most of these findings are based on responses prior to Thursday night’s vice presidential debate.

In 2008, Obama won these states
by a combined margin of 53% to 46%, virtually identical to his national margin.
In the swing states, 44% of voters are now certain they’ll vote for Romney and won’t change their minds. Forty-one percent (41%) are certain they will vote for the president. 

Nationally, Romney also leads by two points in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll."
