Oregon Indies still love Obama - new poll

SurveyUSA released a new general election match-up poll today.

McCain beats Hillary 49% to 41% over all, wins NAVs 54% to 33%.

Obama narrowly beats McCain 48% to 47%, wins NAVs 52% to 41%.

Obama outpolls Hillary in every demographic breakdown, with the lone exception of health care where she manages a very respectable 65% to McCain's 29%, whereas Obama still wins it but less dominantly at 58% to 37%.

On the issues Obama's most dominant areas are environment and education with 79% and 70% respectively. He even narrowly tops Hillary on terrorism, although they both lose badly to McCain on that issue with 12% and 11% respectively. He does a very respectable 62% to McCain's 32% on Iraq, while Hillary polls slightly lower at 59% to McCain's 35%.

Obama's one overwhelmingly dominant ethnic demographic is hispanics at 71% to McCain's 27%. McCain polls even lower (17%) against Clinton but the undecideds are significant at 26% giving Clinton a narrow outright majority at 57%.
