Between  now and the general election on November 6, there are going to be  daily, weekly and monthly polls covering almost every contest  imaginable. Some are local, some are state and some - actually most -  will be on the presidential race.

Until  Election Day, I am going to try and give a synopsis of what the  pollsters reveal for both voters, candidates and campaigns to chomp and  chew. Yes, the only poll that really matters will be on November 6.

With  this being the eve of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte,  North Carolina and the Monday following the close of the Republican  National Convention in Tampa, Florida, thought it would be a good time  to see how the polling was going for both President Barack Obama and  Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
