More swing-state voters say President Obama’s campaign has contacted them in the past month than have heard from Mitt Romney’s campaign, and a new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds Obama leading by a whopping 40 percentage-point margin among voters contacted by an Obama representative. Romney leads by just 16 points among voters reporting contact with his campaign.
The two results are indications that even as Mitt Romney’s supporters are more enthusiastic than ever, the Obama campaign is winning the hand-to-hand battle of door knocking and phone banking that will be waged all the way to Nov. 6, as Obama tries to rouse his 2008 supporters to cast ballots for him a second time.
