(CNN) – New CNN poll of polls out of Indiana and Ohio Friday show both Midwestern states appear up for grabs with less than seven weeks to go before Election Day.

According to averages of several recent surveys from both states, Obama holds a slim 1 point lead in Ohio (46-45 percent) and McCain holds a small 2 point lead in Indiana (47-45 percent).

Both states may be critical for John McCain — no Republican has captured the White House without winning Ohio, and Indiana hasn’t voted for a Democratic presidential candidate in more than 30 years.  Source Article
