They had B50 K46 yesterday.
The close presidential race nudged even closer in the latest ABC News tracking poll, with 49 percent of likely voters favoring George W. Bush and 48 percent for John Kerry — a bare point between them with less than a week and a half of campaigning to go.
Much continues to rest on turnout. Young voters are Kerry's best age group by far; he holds a 21-point lead among 18- to 29-year-olds. And more than half of likely voters that age say it'll be their first time voting in a presidential election.

While young voters would help Kerry, Bush has his own strengths — and one underlying factor, enthusiasm, is among them. Sixty percent of Bush's supporters are "very enthusiastic" about their candidate, compared with 50 percent of Kerry's. Still, that's up five points for Kerry from a week ago.
At the same time, despite the close race, 55 percent of all likely voters say they expect Bush to win, unchanged in the last week.
The race tightened slightly, from 51-46 percent most of last week and 50-46 percent Friday, because Saturday was Kerry's best single day since this tracking poll began Oct.1. Still, these are small shifts, all within polling tolerances; the race has been close and still is.
