74 Days to the Election, and SURPRISE! It's Close

"Don't vote for him!"

There are only 74 days left until the election, and three days until the Republican convention, and when it comes to Romney and Obama (and really, who else is there), it's basically a tie.

One major poll has President Obama and Mitt Romney in a dead heat.

The CNN/ORC International poll reports that among likely voters, 49% will vote for Obama and 47% for Romney, a statistical tie (within the margin of error of about +/-4%). 

"What?! No! I uh, vote for me! Don't not vote! No!"

Among all registered voters, which includes those who might sit this one out, the president leads 52% to 43%.

"Likely voters have traditionally been a more Republican group in past elections because they tend to turn out in higher numbers than Democrats, and 2012 looks like it is no exception," says CNN's polling chief. 

The survey also indicated that nearly 90% of likely voters know who they're going to back.
