Oklahoma: Bush 58% Kerry 34%

Sunday, June 06, 2004

In Oklahoma, a Rasmussen Reports survey finds President George W. Bush leading Senator John F. Kerry 58% to 34%.

Four years ago, Bush defeated Gore in Oklahoma by a 60% to 38% margin.

Like Oklahoma, most states polled so far this year are showing similar results to four years ago. However, in Pennsylvania, Bush is doing better at the moment than he did against Al Gore. The President is behind his pace from four years ago in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Sixty-six percent (66%) of Oklahoma voters Approve of the way Bush is performing his job as President. That figure is substantially above the President's national Job Approval rating.

Data for Oklahoma will updated again early next month. Rasmussen Reports has also recently released polling data for the states of Arkansas, Michigan, Maine, South Carolina, Alabama, Minnesota, New Jersey, Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Oregon, Missouri, Georgia, Illinois, New York, Texas, California and Ohio. Other state polling data will be released each day this week.

Scott Rasmussen, president of Rasmussen Reports, has been an independent pollster for more than a decade.

This data has been compiled from a national telephone survey of 15,000 Likely Voters conducted by Rasmussen Reports from May 1-31, 2004. Each night (except Mothers’ Day), 500 interviews with Likely Voters were conducted. National results for the survey during that time frame show that President Bush and Senator Kerry each attracted 45% of the vote. State-by-state samples carry a margin of error that varies from +/- 3 percentage points to +/- 5 percentage points depending upon the state. Data for California, Texas, and New York carries a 3 percentage point margin of error. For Florida, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Oklahoma, the margin of error is +/- 4 percentage points. For all other states, the margin of error is +/- 5 percentage points. In all cases, the margin of error is expressed with a 95% level of confidence. In some states, oversampling and supplemental interviews were used to obtain an adequate sample size for reporting purposes.
