Barack Obama is leading John McCain 49 percent to 44 percent among likely voters, including leaners, with 1 percent preferring someone else and 9 percent undecided in a Marist Institute poll conducted Sept. 28-30. The margin of error is 3 percent. That's unchanged since last week in this poll. Among all registered voters, the margin is 47 percent to 43 percent.
Marist says the intensity of support for the candidates has fallen off somewhat, from 81 percent who last week said they strongly supported their choice to 74 percent. Seven percent say they might change their minds. The fall-off for McCain was 9 points and for Obama it was 7 points. Both candidates have almost equal favorable ratings, around the 60 percent mark.
