closeThe latest poll out of Atlanta-based GOP pollster Strategic Vision has Barack Obama and Joe Biden up by four points in Washington over John McCain and Sarah Palin while Republican Dino Rossi narrowly leads Gov. Chris Gregoire.
You can find the poll here. It was conducted of 800 likely voters Sunday through Tuesday.
The numbers are generally in line with what we've seen out of other recent polls.
The poll shows Rossi up on Gregoire 48 percent to 46 percent with 6 percent undecided. Just 24 percent think the state is heading in the right direction and Gregoire gets a 46 percent approval rating.
In the meantime Obama/Biden leads McCain/Palin 47 percent to 42 percent. Among the four participants like Obama the best and Biden the least, though the narrow split ranges from 45 percent to 51 percent.
