| Description | Fifty-five percent (55%) of voters now expect Barack Obama to win the election in November and become the 44th President of the United States. Just 15% expect a McCain victory while 27% say the race is too close to call (see crosstabs).
This data provides another measure of just how much the Wall Street crisis has changed the underlying dynamic of the Presidential race.
In mid-September, just before the economic meltdown became public, voters were evenly divided as to who they thought would win. At that time, 35% expected McCain to win and 34% expected an Obama victory. In August, before the two parties held their conventions, 46% expected an Obama victory versus 28% who thought the Republican would win.
