Poll Update: McCain Surge Continues

McCain keeps the 5 point lead in Gallup.

FOX: McCain Leads Obama 45% to 42%. Poll after poll says it…there is no doubt McCain has taken the lead. The key folks McCain has convinced are the people he aimed to convince….independents.

The results show undecided voters may be more apt to pull the lever for McCain. A 46 percent plurality of undecideds would rather get advice from McCain — that’s nearly four times as many as the 12 percent that pick Obama.

By a 30-point margin (52 percent – 22 percent) independent voters choose McCain on this measure. Most Obama voters — 74 percent — would go to him for advice, though some 11 percent would ask McCain. Fully 89 percent of McCain voters would go to him in this situation and 2 percent would go to Obama.

All in all, by 50 percent to 34 percent voters would pick McCain for advice on this tough decision.

Of course many people are more concerned with the battleground state polls….those are neck and neck now.

Catcin up on electoral map.

Meanwhile…for those that are the betting kind…McCain passed Obama up in Intrade.
