URL:http://www.rasmussenreports.com/Presidential_Tracking_Poll.htm Thursday September 02, 2004--The latest Rasmussen Reports Presidential Tracking Poll shows President George W. Bush with 49% of the vote and Senator John Kerry with 45%. This is the first time that Bush has reached the 49% mark in the Tracking Poll since Kerry wrapped up the Democratic nomination on Super Tuesday (March 2). It's also the first time Bush has been up by four points since April 26. Kerry reached 49% a few times following his convention but neither candidate has yet reached the 50% mark. Today, at 3:00 p.m. Eastern, we will release favorable/unfavorable ratings for Bush, Kerry, McCain, Schwarzenegger, and Giuliani. The Rasmussen Reports Presidential Tracking Poll is updated daily by noon Eastern and results are reported on a three-day rolling average basis. Last night, we began our fall schedule of interviewing 1,000 Likely Voters each night (up from 500 earlier in the year). Three-quarters of the interviews for today's report were completed after Monday's Convention speeches by John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. Half were completed after the Tuesday speeches by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Laura Bush. Premium Service during the final two months of the campaign will include daily tracking for Florida, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. We also provide Premium Members with frequent updates for many other states, key Senate races, and a Daily Snapshot of the race. Our pre-Convention Electoral College projection shows Bush with 213 Electoral Votes to 207 for Kerry. The magic number needed for victory is 270 Electoral Votes. This latest projection is based upon a series of state election polls released this weekend from Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio. Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin.
