Two New Polls Show Obama Still Up in Ohio


This morning sees the release of new polls from both Quinnipiac [doc] and the University of Cincinnati's Ohio Poll [pdf].

Quinnipiac shows President Obama up 6 points in Ohio, unchanged from their August 1st poll, and Sen. Sherrod Brown up 7 points over Treasurer Josh Mandel.

The Ohio Poll shows a tighter race with Obama up 3 points over Romney and Brown leading Mandel by a single point.

The other number that jumps out from the surveys is Quinnipiac's finding that only a around a quarter of voters support the Romney-Ryan plan to gut Medicare. In their analysis released with the survey they summarized, "By more than 4-1 margins, voters in each state say the health care program for the elderly is worth the cost and six in 10 say they favor keeping the current Medicare model."
