*NOTE Some of the more reliable polling firms have stopped their daily tracking polls for the time being in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. It is unknown if they will be able to put surveys in the field to get an acceptable sample by next Sunday. Polling samples in states like Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Ohio will have to be watched rather carefully as large power outages have effected these states.
