Bush Poll Lead Holds at Two Points By Staff and Wire Reports Oct 25, 2004, 00:58 President Bush held a two-point national lead on Democratic rival John Kerry for the third consecutive day, and held small leads over Kerry in the swing states of Ohio and Florida, according to Reuters/Zogby polls released on Sunday. Bush led Kerry 48-46 percent in the latest three-day national tracking poll of the race for the White House, a statistical dead heat that was within the poll's margin of error. He led 47-45 percent the two previous days. Initial polling of 10 crucial battleground states, which began on Sunday and will run each day through Nov. 1, also showed tight races between the president and the Massachusetts senator in several of the biggest states. In Florida, Bush led Kerry 49-46 percent, a statistical dead heat within the margin of error of plus or minus 4.1 percentage points. In Ohio, Bush's lead was a more solid 47-42 percent. Kerry led Bush 47-45 percent in Pennsylvania. The states of Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania and their combined 68 electoral votes are the biggest prizes remaining as the tight race for the White House enters its last full week of campaigning before the Nov. 2 election. Kerry had a solid lead in Michigan, at 52-42 percent, and slight leads within the margin of error in Colorado and Minnesota. Bush had a 49-44 percent lead in New Mexico, and slight leads within the margin of error in Iowa, Nevada and Wisconsin. The number of undecided voters in the national poll fell to 4 percent. Neither candidate has been able to break 50 percent since the poll began on Oct. 7.
