VA Poll: McCain +3
Posted by TOM BEVAN | E-Mail This | Permalink | Email Author
New poll from NBC/Mason-Dixon in Virginia (September 17-22, MoE +/-4.0%) showing John McCain with a small 3-point lead over Barack Obama:

McCain 47
Obama 44

McCain leads by 0.8% in the updated RCP Average for Virginia.

The whole idea of my post was a feel good post and I think for everyone else it worked. Well at least most choose positive comments even those who don't hold my views. I was excited at the possibility that my vote might actually mean something for a change. After all, NC has not gone Democratic since 1976. And Virginia, like, NC, is really a toss up since even in the poll you cited the margin of error is +/- 4% .
