Tracking poll: Bush holds narrow edge
By CNN Polling Director Keating Holland
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Monday's CNN/USA Today/Gallup three-daytracking poll shows Texas Gov. George W. Bush continuing to hold a narrow edge over Vice President Al Gore.
With no significant change in today's results, Bush currently is garnering support from 47 percent of all likely voters surveyed and Gore is drawing 44 percent. That represents a shift of just two points from Sunday's figures, which had the Republican ahead 49 percent to 42 percent. The survey of 2,207 likely voters was conducted October 26-28 and has a 2 point margin of error.
