Obama Has Wide Lead Among Early Voters

Posted by | October 14, 2012 12:16 | Filed under: Top Stories


Among those who’ve already voted President Obama leads Mitt Romney 59%-31% in a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The online poll is another sign that early voting is likely to play a bigger role this year than in 2008, when roughly one in three voters cast a ballot before Election Day. Voting is already under way in some form in at least 40 states.

Both the Obama and Romney teams are urging supporters to vote as soon as possible so the campaigns can focus their door-knocking and phone-calling operations on those who are still undecided or need more prodding to get to the polls.

Early voting was a big part of Obama’s victory over Republican John McCain in 2008, and his campaign aims to repeat its success this year.
