Kerry leads Bush -- despite Nader: poll

story.news.yahoo.com

WASHINGTON (AFP) - Democratic challenger John Kerry has pulled ahead of President George W. Bush, even when Ralph Nader and other presidential
candidates were accounted for, according to a new poll.

Kerry led Bush 47-43 percent, even with
Nader, Libertarian, Constitution and Green
Party candidates included in the Zogby poll.

Minus those contenders, Kerry and his
running mate, North Carolina Senator John
Edwards , were favored
50-43 percent over Bush and Vice President
Dick Cheney in the
November 2 vote.


The Kerry-Edwards ticket has gained two
percentage points since the Democratic
Party convention last month.

Bush's overall approval rating rose three
points, to 47 percent, Zogby said, although
52 percent of likely voters disapproved of the
job the president is doing.

The poll was conducted by telephone
August 12-14 among 1,011 likely voters.
The results have a margin of error of plus or
minus three percentage points.

Zogby also found that voters holding
passports preferred Kerry 58 percent to 35
percent for Bush. Voters without passports
favored Bush 48-39 percent.
