Obama-Romney race dead heat in new CNN Poll of Polls

A new average of the latest national surveys indicates that the race for the White House remains all knotted up.

According to a new CNN Poll of Polls compiled and released Wednesday morning indicates that 46 percent of registered voters say they'd vote for President Barack Obama if the November election were held today, with 45 percent saying they'd cast a ballot for presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney. This latest edition of the CNN Poll of Polls is an average of the three national polls conducted in the past week and a half.

With Obama's one-point margin over Romney well within the sampling error of the surveys, it's fair to say that the presidential race can be considered a dead heat.

The three surveys included in the CNN Poll of Polls average are ABC News/Washington Post (July 5-8), Gallup Daily Tracking Poll (July 2-9) and Quinnipiac University (July 1-8). The CNN Poll of Poll does not have a sampling error.
