In what could be a huge Democratic landslide in New Jersey, Sen. Barack Obama tops Republican Sen. John McCain 59 - 36 percent while incumbent Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg leads Republican challenger Dick Zimmer 55 - 33 percent among likely voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. This compares to a 48 - 45 percent Sen. Obama lead in a September 16 poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University. Sen. Lautenberg held a 48 - 39 percent likely voter lead September 17. In this latest survey, white voters back Obama 50 - 44 percent, reversing a 56 - 37 percent McCain lead with whites September 16. The Democrat gets 97 percent of black voters, with 3 percent undecided. Men back Obama 56 - 39 percent, reversing a 53 - 40 percent McCain lead, while women stay with Obama 62 - 32 percent, compared to 54 - 38 percent. Independent voters shift from 47 - 43 percent for McCain to 55 - 38 percent for Obama. The Democrat leads 69 - 27 percent among voters 18 to 34 years old, 60 - 35 percent among voters 35 to 54 and 52 - 41 percent among voters over 55 years old. "The nation's economic crisis has turned New Jersey dark blue, virtually assuring a Democratic sweep with Sen. Barack Obama carrying the state and Sen. Frank Lautenberg winning re-election," said Clay F. Richards, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. "Barring a major development in world affairs, or in the fortunes of Sen. John McCain and former U.S. Rep. Dick Zimmer, Nov. 4 is shaping up as a big night for New Jersey Democrats."
