Polls-Did Kerry Pull Ahead?

It's bad news in the Newsweek poll released on 10/2/04. Kerry is up by 5 points in a poll with registered but not likely voters. Of course, that is just one poll and there are others yet to come out. Previously, Bush was ahead by double digits in some polls. Other polls had a statistical dead heat.

It seems to me that polls in previous elections agreed with each other to some extent. The polls this time around are all over the map. One poll probably doesn't make any difference. We have to see what the other polls say to make any sense of what is going on.

However, I do feel a slight dread in this Newsweek poll. If Kerry wins, we are screwed.
