There is little movement compared to an identical SurveyUSA poll released one month ago: Obama is down 1 point; McCain is flat. Obama continues to lead among men and women, young and old, among whites and minorities. 14% of Republicans cross-over to vote for Democrat Obama; 10% of Democrats cross-over to vote for Republican McCain. Independents break 4:3 for Obama. Obama leads by 29 points in Metro Seattle -- up from 19 points one month ago. Obama leads by 11 in Western Washington, down from 17 one month ago.

The latest numbers from the Evergreen State show a much closer race than last month, when Obama led 53% to 35%. However, they are similar to results from the prior survey in May. Individual polls can sometimes overstate volatility in a race, especially when the results carry a four-and-a-half percentage point margin of sampling error. One way of addressing this is to look at a rolling-average of three consecutive polls. Using this approach, McCain leads Obama 51% to 38%. Last month�s three-poll average showed McCain up by twelve. The June survey was conducted shortly after Obama clinched the nomination and may have reflected a temporary bounce in his support. The Obama advantage is less than the recent 14-point lead registered in a major indepedent survey. It indicates that Washington is barely - just barely - a "battleground" state. The poll found McCain running far ahead of the president of his party. A total of 61 percent of those surveyed had a negative opinion of President Bush, with 48 percent registering a "hard negative" according to Strategies 360 president Ron Dotzauer. By contrast, voters broke nearly even on McCain - 44 percent viewing him positively, 46 percent with negative feelings. Obama was a big winner in Democrats' February caucuses, but the state also has a large reservoir of Hillary Clinton supporters. The Democratic nominee-in-waiting was viewed positively by 54 percent of those surveyed, negatively by 37 percent. Seattle PI
