Pollster John Zogby: "Yesterday a major national newspaper ran a column suggesting that the debates are not important. Just look at these numbers and it is hard to draw that conclusion. In today?s figures Kerry is reaching 95% support among democrats, though he will still need more support. The president polls 75% of republicans but independents are almost split (with Kerry leading, 51%-42%).

The two candidates are in a dead heat among Catholics. Remember that Bill Clinton won Catholics by double-digits and Al Gore beat Bush 51%-46% among Catholics in 2000.


Bush leads Kerry among self-identified investors by only 7 points (51%-44%). Remember that he needs to win this group by double-digits.


Kerry is doing very well among both Hispanics and African-Americans.


As of today, it is a .7 percent race with the president still receiving a negative job performance and a negative re-elect".

Zogby International conducted interviews of 1216 likely voters chosen at random nationwide. All calls were made from Zogby International headquarters in Utica, N.Y., from 10/5/04 thru 10/7/04. The margin of error is +/- 2.9 percentage points. Slight weights were added to region, party, age, race, religion, gender, to more accurately reflect the voting population. Margins of error are higher in sub-groups.

In 1996, John Zogby came within one-tenth of 1 percent of the presidential result. Since 1996, Zogby has polled for Reuters News Agency, the largest news agency in the world. The latest results and analysis of the Zogby polls, and exclusive interviews with John Zogby are available on Reuters.com. The site provides comprehensive coverage of the campaigns, including a special video service, which compares the position of both candidates on key policy issues./

Take Back Your America , it's now your opportunity to show George
Bush, That you have had enough. 4 years of lies, his deceit over
WMD's , reckless spending and a war that has gained us nothing.
Terrorism is at it's highest in the last 23 years . The 911-panel
has found no creditable link to Iraq and 911. Our Administration has
approved of the torture of Iraqi prisoners and yet turned around
only to prosecute the soldiers following these orders. Please take
a minute to visit Take Back Your America open your mind to the
possibility that in November this man must be replaced.
