Rasmussen (5/2/2004): Kerry 45%, Bush 45%

[Tummler]

May 3, 2004--President George W. Bush and Senator John F. Kerry are tied in Arkansas. The latest Rasmussen Reports survey in that state found both men earning 45% of the vote.

Adding Ralph Nader's name to the poll has absolutely no impact in this key Southern state. :D

Just 49% of Arkansas voters believe the U.S. is winning the War on Terror. Thirty percent (30%) believe the terrorists are winning.

Forty-nine percent (49%) of Arkansas voters say they trust Bush more than Kerry when it comes to national defense issues, but 42% prefer Kerry. On a national basis, the President has a larger advantage on this issue.

1. Don't let Arkansas slip under the radar screen!

It is a battleground state!

2. Gas prices affect Arkansans a lot . . .

I'll be surprised if more people here don't turn on Bush as gas prices go up and people realize it's Shrub's greedy, grubbing oil co. friends that are making the money off them. I heard on the news that people are now having to choose between gasoline and groceries.

With all the religious fundamentalist, uneducated "Christians" here, it is a wonder that Kerry is so close, though.
