WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic challenger John Kerry (news - web sites) cut President Bush (news - web sites)'s lead to 2 points with just over two weeks to go before the Nov. 2 election, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released Sunday.



Bush led Kerry by 46 percent to 44 percent in the latest three-day tracking poll of the closely contested race for the White House. The president led the Massachusetts senator by 48 percent to 44 percent the previous day.


"The third debate is now registering among voters and Kerry had a good day," pollster John Zogby said.


The new tracking poll found Kerry regained a good lead among 18- to 29-year-old voters and consolidated his advantage among Hispanics. Bush and Kerry were tied among Roman Catholics, a group Kerry, himself a Catholic, must win to capture the White House, Zogby said.

1. SO, if how I think this works
on a three day tracking poll, to make up a four point deficit ( down to 2), the latest day's number must be much higher for Kerry.
If Kerry maintains this trend, then I bet tomorrow it will be even closer.
