Although the two-point lead is not statistically significant in a poll with a four-point margin of sampling error, it�s quite an improvement for McCain from August. At that time, Obama was ahead 48% to 44% (with leaners included). Since then, the Republican has gained ground among Hispanic voters and those not affiliated with either major party. .

At that time, Obama was ahead 48% to 44% (with leaners included). Since then, the Republican has gained ground among Hispanic voters and those not affiliated with either major party. . . Both candidates are viewed favorably by 56% of the state�s voters. Last month, both were viewed favorably by 57%. The presidential race also has been stable on a national basis for the past several weeks. Obama and McCain have consistently been within a point or two of each other in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.

When �leaners� are included in the current New Mexico totals, it�s Obama 48%, McCain 44%. Leaners are those who don�t initially express a preference for one of the major candidates. But, when asked a follow-up question, they do.

McCain is supported by 93% of Republicans while Obama earns the vote from 80% of Democrats. The Democrat has a very slight edge among unaffiliated voters. McCain enjoys a modest advantage among white voters while Obama has a 19-point lead among Hispanics.

Democrat Tom Udall leads Republican Steve Pearce 51% to 41% for the seat being vacated by New Mexico's longtime GOP Senator Pete Domenici, but the race has tightened considerably in the past month.

This is a monthly synopsis of many more 2008 New Mexico polls.
