It’s said that the person who wins Ohio wins the Presidency. Well with days to go before the election, it looks like Barack is in a good position to win in the Buckeye State and the much needed 18 electoral votes. A recent CNN/ORC Internation survey released Friday has President Barack Obama up on Gov. Mitt Romney by 4 points in Ohio.
Fifty-percent of likely voters questioned in the poll say they are backing the president, with 46% supporting the former Massachusetts governor. Obama’s four-point advantage is within the survey’s sampling error.
Before the poll’s release, Romney’s Ohio state chairman, Sen. Rob Portman, stopped just short of saying Ohio is a must-win for the Republican challenger.
“If we don’t win Ohio, it’s tough to see us winning the election nationally,” Portman said to NBC news. No Presidential candidate has won the election without winning in Ohio since Richard Nixon pulled off the feat in 1968.
