WASHINGTON, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- President Obama claimed a slight lead over Republican rival Mitt Romney after the third debate, a United Press International poll indicated Wednesday.
Forty-nine percent of likely voters said they would vote for Obama if the election was held now and 47 percent said they would back Romney, results of the UPI-CVoter poll indicated. However, the race remained statistically too close to call because of the 4.5 percentage point margin of error.
