Poll: Romney takes slight lead over Obama
Republican challenger Mitt Romney has pulled ahead of President Barack Obama in the race for the White House for the first time in more than a month and leads 45% to 44% among likely voters, according to a Reuters/Ipsos tracking poll released on Wednesday.
With just under four weeks to go before the November 6 election, Romney's surge followed his strong performance against Obama in last week's debate and erased a jump in support that Obama had enjoyed following the September 3-6 Democratic National Convention. (Reuters)
