Obama leads McCain 49 percent to 44 percent. Colorado unaffiliated voters, the critical voting bloc making up more than one-third of the state electorate, are backing Obama 57 percent to 32 percent. Four percent of those polled, however, were still undecided.

In a Denver Post poll one month ago, the two candidates were tied, with 8 percent of voters undecided. Since then, Obama has increased his lead over McCain among men, women, independents and voters older than 35.

Brad Coker, pollster for Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc. who conducted the poll for The Post, said the number of undecideds in Colorado is smaller than in other battleground states. While those voters could have an impact, especially if they all throw their weight behind McCain, Obama has momentum.

"Obama looks like he's in good shape. Even if all the undecideds break to McCain, Obama could likely still hang on," Coker said.

McCain spokesman Tom Kise said in the final few days of a campaign, polls are "all over the board."

"The only poll that is going to matter is the one on Election Day," he said. "In these last 96 hours . . . we are fully confident that we will turn our people out and Colorado will be a red state on Election Day."
