Schedule of Updates

 

Welcome to the Rasmussen Reports Daily Snapshot. This page is updated daily at noon Eastern to provide a quick overview of the Presidential Race. Questions or comments?

Daily Tracking in Key States Is Now Available: Florida: Bush 47% Kerry 47%, Michigan: Bush 47% Kerry 46%, Ohio: Kerry 48% Bush 46%, Pennsylvania: Kerry 48% Bush 46%, North Carolina: Bush 55% Kerry 40%. Next Update: Thursday at 5:00 p.m. Eastern.

NOTE: For the next several days, we will be posting the Snapshot 30 minutes early--at 11:30 Eastern. This will enable Premium Members to access the President Tracking Poll before the traffic crunch at noon Eastern. We will continue with this early posting for several days until we are able to add sufficient server capacity to handle our new levels of volume.

Today, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern, we will release our first daily tracking polls for Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. Over the past few days, we released state polling data for Missouri, New Jersey, Minnesota and California.

See perspectives on Iraq.

See Scott's Page. Review Daily Snapshot for yesterday, Sept 6, Sept 5, Sept 4, Sept 3, Sept 2, or Sept 1.
