Quinnipiac: Hillary Runs Stronger Than Obama Against McCain In Big Three Swing States
A new batch of polls from Quinnipiac University lends weight to Hillary Clinton's argument that she's more electable against McCain than Obama -- it finds that she handily beats McCain in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, while Obama only wins in one of the three:
Florida
Clinton (D) 49%, McCain (R) 41%
McCain (R) 44%, Obama (D) 43%Sample: 1,411 Florida voters. Margin of error: ±2.6%.
Ohio
Clinton (D) 48%, McCain (R) 38%
McCain (R) 43%, Obama (D) 42%Sample: 1,127 Ohio voters. Margin of error: ±2.9%.
Pennsylvania
Clinton (D) 51%, McCain (R) 37%
Obama (D) 47%, McCain (R) 38%Sample: 1,494 Florida voters. Margin of error: ±2.5%.
On the bright side for Obama, his showings in Florida and Pennsylvania have improved since the last poll from a month ago. However, Hillary is still outperforming him in all three states.
