Quote:
Last month, Obama led McCain 51% to 38%. The Democrat’s strong advantage in the state is no surprise to anyone; Ronald Reagan remains the only Republican presidential nominee win Massachusetts since 1956. In 1972, Massachusetts was the only state to cast its votes for George McGovern.Obama is viewed favorably by 67% of Massachusetts voters, up from 61% last month. He is viewed unfavorably by 31% of voters.
McCain’s ratings are 57% favorable, up from 53% last month, and 40% unfavorable.
More than one-third of Massachusetts voters (36%) think Hillary Clinton should be Barack Obama’s running mate in the election. Nearly half (48%) disagree. Those numbers show voters in the Bay State are slightly more in favor of an Obama-Clinton ticket than voters nationwide.
While just over a quarter of voters (27%) think McCain is too old to be president, 36% of voters think Obama is too inexperienced for the job. Those numbers are a bit different from the national average, where a larger plurality of voters think Obama is too inexperienced.
