"The candidates are still in a statistical dead heat, with Kerry making incremental gains in a steady drip-drip-drip that has eroded the president's lead," said pollster John Zogby. Bush had a four-point lead three days ago.
The number of likely voters who believe Bush deserves to be re-elected dropped from 47 percent to 45 percent over the last four days, with the number of voters who believe it is time for someone new climbing from 48 percent to 51 percent.
But the stubborn gap between those who want a new president and those who support Kerry indicates he still has not convinced some voters that he is a worthy alternative to Bush.
"With 51 percent saying it is time for someone new and 45 percent supporting Kerry, he is still underperforming," Zogby said.
