The poll was released yesterday (July 14). Kerry leads Bush 49% to 42%, with Nader at 3 and undecided just 6%. In the last Zogby poll released June 20, Kerry was at 50%, Bush 43 and Nader 1% and 3% undecided. Very little change. But in all four NM polls conducted by Zogby, Kerry has either led or tied Bush. The survey&#8217;s margin of error is plus or minus 4.3%. A poll of NM from American Research Group (see my July 12 report) also has Kerry leading by seven points [in New Mexico].<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8221;It&#8217;s a given among Republicans that a vote for Nader is a vote for our President.
