Speaking on CNN’s State of the Union, David Axelrod said that recent polls of the race that show Romney with an edge nationally, buoyed by a higher percentage of Americans who believe the Republican nominee would better handle the economy, contradicted what the president’s team is seeing on the ground.
“In that particular poll, Candy, that may be the case, but in reality that’s not the case,” Axelrod said, rejecting the findings of one such survey.
Axelrod said the polls had failed to capture the president’s strength in early voting.
“If you look at what is going on around the country, the flood of early voting that’s going on all over this country very much in our favor, I think people know what the reality is,” he said.
