Rasmussen Reports’ MO poll isn’t as rosy as SUSA, giving Clinton a 9-point lead (47-38), but it still reflects a surge for Obama: a week ago RR reported a difference of 19 points.
Everybody should get out and vote Tuesday. The primaries are voters’ only real shot at making a meaningful choice, instead of just settling for the choices that others have made for them. Both parties’ primaries are fluid enough that your vote really will be meaningful.
