UTICA, N.Y. (WKTV) - Does Barack Obama's lead in the polls mean that the race is over? Local pollster John Zogby says far from it.

Zogby says according to the numerous polls, Barack Obama has had a very good last couple of weeks, "Since we began, we've seen Obama's lead go from two points, up to six points, and that's a rolling average, clearly momentum is with Obama right now."

But Zogby says you may not want to read too much into that right now, things could change, he says "In 2000, we had Al Gore up by as much as seven points and George W. Bush as much as seven points on two different occasions so it swung up and down, and up and down. Same thing in 2004 with John Kerry, Kerry was in the lead, then Bush was in the lead and back and forth so it's way too soon to say this race is over."
