Latinos Post brings you the latest election news the night before the 2012 presidential election between President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
While President Obama still clings to a narrow lead in many critical swing states, the national polls predict a very close outcome for the popular vote.
Today sees the return of the Gallup daily tracking poll after its hiatus due to fallout from Hurricane Sandy last week.
Republican challenger Mitt Romney still leads in that poll, though only by a single point, dropping significantly from the 5 or 7-point margins we saw early last week.
Obama's support has been on the rise in the last week after his quick and decisive response to the hurricane and its aftermath, and this update ignores Romney's stronger support from earlier days.
The Florida Times-Union/InsiderAdvantage poll, which was published on Sunday, found that Romney leads among Florida likely voters 52 percent to 47 percent. Sunday's poll also revealed that the GOP challenger holds a 25-point lead among independent voters.
Real Clear Politics polls on Nov. 4 show Obama ahead of Romney in Ohio-arguably the most important of the eight swing states-49.6 percent to 46.8 percent. This comes on the heels of three new polls released on Sunday.
