(Angus Reid Global Monitor) – Republican John McCain holds a slight lead over Democrat Barack Obama in the Hoosier State, according to a review of the latest four voting intention polls. 48.0 per cent of voters in Indiana would support the Arizona senator in today’s United States presidential election, while 47.0 per cent would back the Illinois senator.

The two contenders are tied in two of the surveys.

Republican George W. Bush won Indiana’s 11 electoral votes in the 2004 presidential election with 60 per cent of all cast ballots. No Democrat has carried the Hoosier State since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964.

Bush is ineligible for a third term in office. The U.S. presidential election is scheduled for Nov. 4.
