1 Obama Builds Real Lead in Presidential Contest Report on post-convention survey September 14, 2012

2 2 Methodology and Overview This presentation is based on a survey conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research for Democracy Corps. The survey of 1000 likely 2012 voters (1000 weighted) nationwide was conducted from September 8 to 12, Unless otherwise noted, margin of error= +/-3.1 percentage points at 95% confidence.

3 3 Key Findings Obama leads by 5 points on the ballot, to percent against Mitt Romney. All of the President s gains came with what we have called the Rising American Electorate young people, minorities, and unmarried women the new broad base for progressives. This was a base convention for Democrats whose base forms nearly half of the electorate. Obama is now winning 68 percent of unmarried women matching his 2008 level with this group. Romney s running mate, Paul Ryan, is not helping the ticket. His personal rating has not improved in the three weeks since the Republican convention stuck in slightly negative territory. The engagement gap: Nearly an equal number of Democrats and Republicans now say they are following the election very closely. But minorities, unmarried women, and particularly women, trail the electorate overall on this key measure. Both candidates improved their personal images in the conventions, but Mitt Romney remains in negative territory and he is running out of opportunities to change voters gut feelings about him. In our monthly tracking dating back to January 2011, Mitt Romney has yet to receive a net positive personal rating. Obama makes gains, but the weak economy still helps Romney. Obama has narrowed Romney s advantage on the economy to a 2-point deficit, but that still creates downward pressure in the race. There is no improvement in the country s economic mood, even if there is greater confidence in its leadership.
