Quinnipiac: Obama Leads in Key Battleground States

by Paddy


Not much to add to this.

A new Quinnipiac poll finds that an "emerging Democratic coalition of women, minorities and younger voters is propelling" Sen. Barack Obama to leads of five to 17 percentage points over Sen. John McCain among likely voters in four key battleground states.

Overall results show:

Colorado: Obama 49%, McCain 44%
Michigan: Obama 48%, McCain 42%
Minnesota: Obama 54%, McCain 37%
Wisconsin: Obama 52%, McCain 39%.

Interesting finding: "Democrats would like Obama to pick Sen. Hillary Clinton as his running mate, but voters overall reject the idea. Independent voters oppose Sen. Clinton by 16 to 29 percentage points."
