Big Ten Goes Blue
By I fear that this is too good to be true:
| Illinois | Obama 61% | McCain 32% |
|---|---|---|
| Indiana | Obama 51% | McCain 41% |
| Iowa | Obama 52% | McCain 39% |
| Michigan | Obama 58% | McCain 36% |
| Minnesota | Obama 57% | McCain 38% |
| Ohio | Obama 53% | McCain 41% |
| Pennsylvania | Obama 52% | McCain 41% |
| Wisconsin | Obama 53% | McCain 40% |
The Indiana and Ohio findings seem particularly optimistic. On the other hand, the September 19 poll was very favorable to McCain, even more so than most of the Midwest polls of the time.
