CNN Poll: Obama Up 4 Points In Texas
The new CNN poll of Texas has some big news, putting Barack Obama ahead in this important March 4 primary, although the results aren't quite conclusive.
Here are the numbers, compared to last week:
Obama 50% (+2)
Clinton 46% (-4)
With a margin of error of ±3.5%, the race is still a statistical dead heat. From the pollster's analysis: "The 2-point gain for Obama and the 4-point drop for Clinton are both within the poll's sampling error, so although the survey appears to indicate some movement toward Obama, we cannot say for certain that he has gained any ground since last week."
Texas has become a key firewall state for Hillary, and even Bill Clinton himself said she needs to win both here and in Ohio on March 4, or else she won't become the nominee.
