The CNN-ORC poll was the third survey of Colorado released Thursday, with two of them showing Obama in the lead. Obama leads 49 percent to 48, according to a CallFire survey, and Romney leads 50 percent to 47, according to a Rasmussen survey.
Colorado is one of the closest swing states. Obama leads Romney by less than 1 percentage point, according to the RCP average.
Obama won the state in 2008, but it was only the second time since 1968 it had gone for the Democratic presidential candidate.
