| Latest Poll: Kerry Leads (By A Hair)

Bloomberg reports that “Kerry Leads Bush in Poll With Help of Independents.” This would be the Zogby poll, if you’re scoring at home.

Kerry, a Massachusetts senator, has support from 47 percent of likely voters to Bush’s 44 percent, according to the poll conducted April 15-17. Among self-described independents, Kerry, 60, leads Bush, 57, 48 percent to 38 percent. About 7 percent of voters are undecided. The survey of 1,049 adults has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

I read through the full report at Zogby. Two big concerns for Democrats are:
1) It’s a tie with Nader in the race.
2) Bush had a 10 point lead in the red states and Kerry had a 17 point lead in the blue states so when the electoral dust settles, you’re still likely to see Bush with a majority of the electoral votes.

What good is a poll that is a month old. Have your poll readers gone on vacation.
