McCain Leads (Barely) In Three Key States
From AOLNews.com ~ John McCain holds a razor-thin one-point lead in Florida, ahead of Barack Obama's 47-46 percent, according to CNN's poll of polls.
The Republican presidential nominee held a healthier margin there for most of the summer, but Obama has aggressively targeted Sunshine State voters on the airwaves, topping McCain by a margin of more than eight to one when it comes to ad spending.
Florida has 27 electoral votes at stake.
McCain also leads by a one-point margin in Ohio, up 47-46 percent. No Republican has won the White House without winning Ohio, which has 20 electoral votes at stake.
The Ohio poll of polls consists of three surveys: Big Ten Battleground (Sept. 14-17), CNN/Time/ORC (Sept. 14-16), and Ohio Newspaper Poll/University of Cincinnati (Sept. 12-16).
The Florida poll of polls consists of four surveys: ARG (September 14-17), CNN/Time/ORC (September 14-16), Research 2000 (September 15-18), and Miami Herald/St. Petersburg Times/Bay News 9 (September 14-17).
In Missouri, a battleground with 11 electoral votes up for grabs, McCain leads Obama by four points, 49-45 percent, according to a Research 2000 poll released Sunday.
