AFL-CIO's Internal Polling

An AFL-CIO official sends along the following data from Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania:
 

Among veterans, retirees and gun owners -- the three groups we microtargeted communication to in the final weeks of persuasion -- we've seen the numbers improve dramatically.

 

Among union gun owners, it's now 58-30 Obama, up from 48-41 in early September, a 21 point jump.

 

Among veterans we're at 58-32, up from 49-41 in early September. (+18)

 

And among retirees, we're now at  59-31, up from 52-37, a 14 point improvement, nearly double the margin
