POLL TIME

A couple of new ones:

According to Rasmussen, Obama continues to lead McCain in New Mexico. In this n=month's poll the margin is 49 to 44 percent. A month ago, McCain was ahead of Obama in the Rasmussen poll 49 to 47 percent.

Also on Thursday SurveyUSA showed that Obama is winning New Mexico 52 percent to McCain's 44 percent. Those numbers are unchanged from a SurveyUSA poll two weeks ago.

In the U.S. Senate race Thursday Rasmussen showed Democrat Tom Udall beating Republican Steve Pearce 55 percent to 41 percent. Udall has widened his lead over Pearce in the past month. On Sept. 8 Rasmussen showed Udall leading by just seven percentage points.

In the Senate race, SurveyUSA shows Udall over Pearce 58 percent to 39 percent.
