What will be the result of Tuesday's Gallup poll?

Settled as Obama +11

In the current three-day rolling average of registered voters Obama remains ahead by 52% to 41%,

Background:

We're getting down to the wire with only 2 weeks to go before election day. Everyone else is starting to watch the polls obsessively, why should we be be any different? Let's try some daily poll prognostication and see how we do. Don't worry, the weekly one is still here.

Monday's Gallup showed Obama +11. What will happen in tomorrow's poll?

Note: Gallup polls are the result of a 3 day rolling average so the poll released on Tuesday will be based on surveys done on Saturday, Sunday and Monday nights. (Based on survey of registered voters)


Settlement details: As reported by Gallup near 1300EDT on Tuesday.

I love these questions. I find myself charting results based on days of the week looking for patterns. Exactly what a hubdub question should be, part prediction, part research, part fun.
