Romney Erases Obama’s Lead

A new Pew Research survey finds Mitt Romney no longer trails President Obama after the vast majority of respondents think Romney won their first presidential debate.

Among registered voters, Romney has drawn even with Obama, 46% to 46%, after trailing by nine points in September.

Among likely voters, Romney holds a slight 49% to 45% edge over Obama. He trailed by eight points among likely voters last month.

Interestingly, however, the Gallup tracking poll shows Obama with a five point lead, 50% to 45%.
