Georgia 2008: McCain 50.2%, Obama 46.0%
(Angus Reid Global Monitor) - Republican John McCain leads Democrat Barack Obama in the Peach State, according to a review of the latest five voting intention polls. 50.2 per cent of voters in Georgia would support the Arizona senator in today’s United States presidential election, while 46.0 per cent would back the Illinois senator.
McCain is ahead in all five surveys, and reaches 50 per cent in four of them.
Libertarian nominee Bob Barr represented Georgia’s 7th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1995 to 2003.
In 2004, Republican George W. Bush won Georgia’s 15 electoral votes, with 58 per cent of all cast ballots. No Democrat has carried the Peach State since Bill Clinton in 1992.
Bush is ineligible for a third term in office. The U.S. presidential election is scheduled for Nov. 4.
