According to an Opinion Research Corporation poll of four crucial battleground states released today by Time Magazine and CNN, Barack Obama is leading John McCain in Nevada, New Mexico and Pennsylvania, while McCain is essentially tied -- with a 1 percent lead that's well within the margin of error -- in Colorado.

Obama's up by 5 points in Nevada and Pennsylvania -- both statistically significant -- and 13 points in New Mexico.

McCain holds a lead among whites in all four states polled.
