Bob Barr 3%
Unsure 4%

Quote:

Libertarian candidate Bob Barr, who served in Congress as part of Georgia’s Congressional delegation, picks up 3% of the vote initially. But when asked a follow-up question only 1% remain committed to the man some view as a potential spoiler for McCain’s hopes.

While both McCain and Obama earn roughly equal support from their own parties, McCain has a thirteen percentage point advantage among unaffiliated voters. McCain leads by twenty among men while the candidates are roughly even among women.

McCain is viewed favorably by 58% of Georgia’s voters and unfavorably by 39%. Obama’s ratings are 50% favorable, 46% unfavorable.
