Obama and Romney goes Head To Head

President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney remained in a virtual tie in the latest opinion poll released Sunday, just two days before the White House election.

The survey by the Wall Street Journal and NBC News
gave Obama 48 percent support and Romney 47
percent — a statistical dead heat, given the survey's
margin of error of plus or minus 2.55 percentage
points.

"This poll is reflecting a very, very close campaign
nationally," Republican pollster Bill McInturff, who
conducted this survey with Democratic pollster Peter Hart, said in a statement. "It's a dead heat," Hart added. "This election is going to be decided by turnout, turnout, turnout."

The poll, conducted between November 1-3, sampled 1,475 likely voters. The findings were in keeping with most national polls which find the presidential contest too close to call.

Most polls, however, give Obama a slight but
significant lead in most of the crucial battleground
states that ultimately will determine the outcome of
the presidential, and therefore give the Democratic
incumbent favorable odds of re-election.
