What will the margin be among men in the next Gallup daily weekly aggregate (gender)?

Settled as Tie or Obama leads among men

http://www.gallup.com/poll/108022/Candidate-Support-Gender.aspx

Background:

Gallup maintains a weekly aggregate of candidate support by gender at http://www.gallup.com/poll/108022/Candidate-Support-Gender.aspx. In the most recent result, McCain lead Obama among men by 6 points. The next posted result should cover the dates 8/25-8/31. While McCain is banking on Palin to increase his support among women, his selection may also have an impact among men. What will happen when the next aggregate is released?

The number of interest in the market is the difference in polling points between Obama and McCain among men, as reported at http://www.gallup.com/poll/108022/Candidate-Support-Gender.aspx.

Note: in the event the dates of the next aggregate are not precisely 8/25-8/31, the market will settle based on the next result released.


Settlement details: As reported at http://www.gallup.com/poll/108022/Candidate-Support-Gender.aspx. Market concerns the numbers for men ONLY. Market settles for the 8/25-8/31 aggregate, or the first released aggregate if one with these precise dates is not released.
