Obama Leads in Wis. Poll

THE RACE: The presidential race for Democrats and Republicans in Wisconsin.

THE NUMBERS:

Democratic Primary

Barack Obama, 47 percent

Hillary Rodham Clinton, 42 percent


Republican Primary

John McCain 48 percent

Mike Huckabee 32 percent

OF INTEREST: This is the first reliable poll done in Wisconsin in advance of Tuesday's primary vote. The numbers reflect estimates done by Obama's campaign that also showed him ahead in the state. However, a large group of respondents, 11 percent, remain undecided.

The poll by Research 2000 for WISC-TV, Madison, interviewed 400 likely Democratic voters and 400 likely Republican voters by phone Feb. 13-14, with a sampling error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.

That headline is deceptive.  +/-5% is probably the margin of error, and there's 11% undecided. 

Hope the obamaniacs aren't resting on their unwon laurels.

Yeah it is misleading if the margin is +/- 5 and he has a 5 point lead.
