September 25, 2008 Poll: New Hampshire is up for grabs Play video

(NECN) - There is one state in New England that could be decisive in the McCain-Obama contest for president. A new poll out in New Hampshire says the battleground state is up for grabs.

Jim Braude is joined by David Paleologos, director of the Political Research Center at Suffolk University in Boston.

Paleologos says that Obama continues to show strength in states that historically vote Republican for presiden. He appears to be benefiting from the Wall Street meltdown.

The poll indicates that in those states that tend to vote republican, Obama leads McCain 46 percent to 45 percent in a tight race.
