Race Tied as Braley Campaigns Across Iowa, Thousands of Volunteers Push Supporters to Vote

Braley surges from 4 points down in last Quinnipiac poll to tied today: 47-47

Braley leads 56-36 among those who have already voted

Des Moines, IA ?The final Quinnipiac poll before Election Day shows what the Braley campaign has been seeing for weeks: This race is very tight but Bruce is surging as voters take their final look at the candidates and are hearing from their friends and neighbors about what is at stake and how important it is to vote for Bruce and his plans to fight for the middle class, not the wealthiest few.

"This race is a dead heat but the energy and enthusiasm is with Bruce as voters make their final decisions and cast their ballots," said Sam Lau, Braley for Iowa spokesman. "We know that the more Iowans who vote, the better Bruce will do?and our superior field operation is reaching out to hundreds of thousands of our supporters in the final days to make sure they understand what is at stake and how important it is for them to vote."

This poll comes as Bruce campaigns across Iowa talking to voters about the issues and thousands of volunteers are reaching out to hundreds of thousands of voters to make sure Bruce's supporters are coming out to the polls in this critical and tight race.

With the exception of a single outlier, every single poll of Iowa voters in the last few days has shown this race to be a dead heat heading into Election Day with clear movement in Bruce's direction. Our campaign's modeling of the electorate shows that Bruce is headed to victory on the strength of his clear and significant lead among early voters, the superior Democratic ground efforts that will drive far greater numbers of supporters to the polls, and his strong and consistent lead among independent voters.
