6 people were interviewed in a verbal study conducted by ticklishmusic in the study room. Of the 6, 2 declined to participate. 3 of the remainder indicated that they intended to vote for Obama, while the last one indicated that she would vote for Ron Paul, before admitting she was Swedish and only 17 years old.
Obama: 75%
Paul: 25%
Romney: 0%
This indicates a severe threat of Romney losing the state of Georgia and really fucking up his strategy of winning the electoral college.

So you're saying a poll conducted by a firm put Obama ahead? Oh no he'll lose! What's their past reliability? Do they have a history of partisan leaning? How reliable is their methodology? Perhaps most importantly, who did their results a week, two weeks, and a month ago show leading the race?
I mean c'mon, you don't see me posting the +3 SurveyUSA Obama poll in Ohio for all those reasons.
Edit: I just googled that polling firm. They had a FL poll putting Romney 14 points ahead in August...wat.

Looks like Pakistan didn't like the way Obama pronounced their country's name.

Polls with ties below 50% are bad for incumbents, because undecideds tend to break for challengers. More importantly, this is Michigan, which should be solid blue Obama territory. Same with Pennsylvania. Romney is getting huge, unexpected support in these states with minimal to no expenditures of resources (more recently his campaign has been advertising in these states). All of Obama's efforts to keep Ohio won't matter if he loses these other states, and it is looking increasingly like he will. The movement over the past month unmistakably favors Romney.
Again, I think that the numbers are going to continue to drift towards Romney.

Their last poll of WI had Romney ahead by 4%. It's a gain for Obama over time. There's also not substantial evidence undecideds break for the challenger in presidential elections this late in the race.

I'm sorry, but this thread has shown several times that Canada is probably the only country that has citizens that understand American politics even remotely well (and even then it's pretty shoddy when you get the the nuances). The rest of the world just hates republicans because they like to hate Bush. True Story.

Local Fox =/= Fox News.
It is an interesting poll because Michigan has always been expected to be an Obama state. The fact that it is polling this close is surprising.

Not surprised at pakistan. Sending a kill team after somebody on a sovereign nation's soil, regardless of him being world's most wanted is not going to make people happy. I'd think the statistics are pretty correct though on how foreigners would vote(if they could) though.

Even in August (before Ryan was introduced when Obama was a total shoe-in in the state) this polling firm showed a 4% Romney lead.
