WASHINGTON
(AP) -- Preliminary results of an exit poll conducted for The Associated
Press show that the presidential election hinges once again on the
economy.
The survey of voters as they leave
polling places Tuesday shows 6 in 10 voters say the economy is the top
issue facing the nation, with unemployment and rising prices hitting
voters hard.
About 4 in 10 say they think the
nation's economy is on the mend, but more say that things are getting
worse or are bad and stagnating.
About half of
voters say the previous president, George W. Bush, shoulders more of
the blame for economic challenges than President Barack Obama.
Just a quarter of those surveyed in the exit poll say they are better off than four years ago.
