WASHINGTON: US President Barack Obama comprehensively won the second presidential debate in New York against his Republican rival Mitt Romney as the latter lost one point in his national lead, new poll numbers released by Gallup has said.
"Americans who watched the second presidential debate say Barack Obama did a better job than Mitt Romney, by 51 per cent to 38 per cent -- a stark contrast to the first debate, of which most named Romney the winner," Gallup said releasing the results of its latest opinion poll yesterday.
The Gallup numbers give Obama a larger margin than the two other snap polls Tuesday after the debate -- CNN and CBS each gave Obama a seven-point win.
