Polls Show Widening Gap

New polls show Obama taking a larger lead in Nevada. An Insider Advantage poll on 10/13 shows Obama at 49% and McCain at 46%. McCain lost 1 point since the last Insider Advantage poll on 10/6.

The latest Rasmussen poll on 10/16 has Obama at 50% and McCain at 45%. The last Rasmussen poll was on 10/2 and showed Obama at 51% and McCain at 47%.

According to Pollster.com McCain has been losing ground in Nevada since late September. The latest trends in polling have shown a negative correlation between the status of the economy and approval of John McCain. If this remains the trend throughout November Obama may easily sweep Nevada.
