Obama wins in reader poll

610

President Barak Obama, a Democrat, beat GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts, in InMaricopa.com’s weekly poll.

Of the 770 respondents to the question who would get their vote for president, 54 percent chose incumbent Obama.

Forty-six percent voted for Romney.

This particularly contentious election cycle has failed to produce a clear front runner.

For months now both candidates have been polling with scant leads, usually within the margins of error of the polls.

And even though Election Day hasn’t arrived, already lawyers for both candidates are preparing for recounts or other legal action stemming from challenges to absentee ballots.
