WASHINGTON, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- Republican candidate Mitt Romney's lead has shrunk and he's in a virtual tie with U.S. President Obama, a United Press International poll indicated.
Romney had a 3 percentage point lead -- still within the margin of error -- among likely voters last week, but that lead was 1 percentage point Monday, 48 percent to 47 percent, results of the UPI-CVoter poll indicated.
