Click to play videoWashington: With just four days ahead of the US Presidential election, the most recent numbers of the election polls suggests that the Democratic nominee Barack Obama is maintaining a constant lead over his rival Republican nominee John McCain.
According to the latest CNN poll 50 per cent of likely voters are backing Obama with McCain only having 43 per cent supporters with him. Meanwhile, 7 per cent of the voters remain undecided.
Recent changes in the battleground states are as follows:
- Washington already an Obama leaning is now safe for Obama.
- Colorado and Nevada earlier battleground states have now swung towards Obama.
- Meanwhile, a McCain leading state of Indiana has now become a battleground, with each day passing by, Obama gaining over rival McCain.
McCain must overtake Obama in the many traditionally Republican states where he is trailing or tied - a tall order. Or he needs to gain some breathing room by winning Pennsylvania, where he trails by 12 percentage points, according to the AP-GfK poll.
Despite a mounting chorus of Republicans predicting McCain's failure, aides to the four-term Arizona senator insist their internal surveys show victory is still within reach.
McCain was written off prematurely last year, and Obama seemed poised for victory in New Hampshire's Democratic primary just before Hillary Rodham Clinton charged to victory there.
McCain will be hoping that undecided voters lean his way come election day.
