CLINTON LEADS IN NEW JERSEY
In the closing days of the election, it appears that Democrat challenger Bill Clinton will receive more votes from New Jersey voters than the incumbent President George Bush. However, the size of Clinton's margin of victory will depend on who actually votes on November 3. Likely New Jersey voters give Democrat Bill Clinton a 12 point lead over Republican incumbent George Bush — 42 to 30 percent — while Ross Perot has support from 18 percent and 9 percent remain undecided. However, the margin between the candidates declines to 8 points among those voters who have the highest probability of voting — Clinton 45 percent, Bush 37 percent and Perot 17 percent. In addition, at this time, the campaign momentum favors George Bush.

THE MOOD OF THE NEW JERSEY ELECTORATE — IT’S TIME FOR A CHANGE
As New Jersey voters think about who to vote for on November 3, their feelings about the current economic and political situation in the country will help to guide their decisions. An indicator of the mood of the electorate is that 8-in-10 registered voters say things in the country are "off on the wrong track" and about 8-in-10 say that they are disappointed, frustrated, and angry about government and politics. About two-thirds of voters feel it's time for a change from the 12 year Republican control of the White House.
