Independents Flocking to Obama

Posted by Paul on March 27, 2008

Amazin.g. Two new polls out today:

In a PPIC poll, in the general election, Obama beats McCain handily in California, while Clinton narrowly edges him out.

Obama   49
McCain  40

Clinton 46
McCain  43

Could Clinton lose California?

Meanwhile, his numbers in Conneticut have jumped as well

Obama   52
McCain  35

Clinton 45
McCain  42

Says the Q-poll:

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton initially was the favorite among Democrats before the Feb. 5 primary, but lost to Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, 50-47 percent. In a hypothetical matchup, Obama is now in a stronger position than Clinton against Arizona Sen. John McCain in the state’s general election. Independent voters support Obama, 45-38 percent and voters younger than 45 back him, 63-30 percent.

There is also an NBC poll out today that show Obama weathering the Wright storm. Watch Tim Russert break down the poll numbers.
