latest Reuters tracking poll has Obama ahead 4%

4% is among LV while the Registered Voter statistic is Obama ahead by 6%.

This one was conducted August 24-27.

Please confirm this is the latest poll. I believe the August 25-28 will be released today.

And is this tracking poll exclusively for the RNC convention days? Or will it go on endlessly as Gallup and Rasmussen?

of course Ras has mostly been in Romney's favor for months so it's not unexpected. WI_DEM Aug 2012 #5

I don't see it listed on this morning's polls at RCP, so hopefully it will be out soon.

I notice that Obama is still ahead of Romney in Rasmussen, and is at 50% Approval in their poll. Who knows whether they're up to something. I guess we'll see later in the week.

He has an awesome-post-convention-republican-bump narrative set to unfold in the next few days. Obama's 3 pt. lead shrank to 2, then 1%. That's a sign.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Ras have Mr. One Percent up by more than five points by the weekend.
