Quote:

Pennsylvania, with 21 Electoral College votes, is one of the few traditionally Democratic states where McCain is thought to have a chance at scoring an upset.

One percent (1%) of Pennsylvania voters plan on casting their ballot for a third-party candidate while five percent (5%) remain undecided. The latter figure includes 15% of unaffiliated voters, four percent (4%) of Democrats and one percent (1%) of Republicans.

Obama leads by eight among women while the candidates are tied among men. McCain leads among those who attend church on a regular basis while Obama leads among those who don’t.

Among voters who see the economy as the top issue of Election 2008, Obama leads by a 63% to 22% margin. Those who see national security issues as the highest priority prefer McCain, 75% to 22%.
