Presidential Race Still Virtually Even: Reuters/ipsos Poll

Romney-Obama

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama holds a narrow lead of 2 percentage points over Republican challenger Mitt Romney in Reuters/Ipsos poll results released on Saturday, leaving the race effectively tied as fewer voters say they are likely to change their minds.

Senh: In last week's poll, Mitt Romney was ahead by 1%. Looks like the momentum has moved to Barack Obama after two consecutive debate victories.
