Burlington, VT Today, Democracy for America (DFA), released poll numbers showing President Barack Obama leading Republican nominee Mitt Romney by 6 in New Hampshire and democratic hopefuls Carol Shea-Porter and Annie Kuster hold strong leads in their respective districts. Statewide, President Barack Obama leads Mitt Romney by 6 points with likely voters in New Hampshire. The margin of error for the poll conducted is 2.5%, making his lead well outside the margin of error. Voters in New Hampshire overwhelmingly favor ending the Bush Tax Cuts for people earning over $250,000 a year and oppose turning Medicare into a voucher program as proposed by Vice-Presidential candidate Paul Ryan. In New Hampshires First District, Carol Shea-Porter leads her opponent by a 4 point margin outside of the margin of error.

When asked about the favorability voters had of Kusters opponent Republican Charlie Bass, voters hold only a 39% favorable opinion of him. This polling was conducted August 7 and 8 are a strong indicator at how the Granite State will swing 84 days out from the election. Jim Dean, Chair of Democracy for America said, Its time people saw through these Republican lies. We need to call a spade a spade and made it clear to the people of New Hampshire that the Romney and Ryan budget will destroy Medicare and Social Security and that folks like Carol and Ann will stand up and protect these important social services not just now, but for future generations. Thats why Im proud that these two are members of DFAs Dean Dozen. The polling was paid for by Democracy for America and was conducted August 7 and 8 in a survey of 1,591 likely voters in New Hampshire with the margin of error falling to 2.5%.
