The George Washington University Battleground Poll released Tuesday shows McCain closing to within just 2 percent of Sen. Barack Obama in the national vote — 50 percent to 48 percent — well within the poll’s 3.5 percent margin of error.
That would mean the contest is so close that it is statistically impossible to conclude, based on the poll, whether McCain or Obama is ahead.
The organizations conducting the poll, the Tarrance Group and Lake Research Partners, have strong bipartisan credentials. Tarrance CEO Ed Goeas is a Republican strategist, and Celinda Lake of Lake Research is a Democrat.
