There are signs that New Hampshire will be a very blue state on Election Day.
According to two new polls, Democrats are leading in every major race there.
In the presidential race,
Survey USA says Barack Obama is "poised to out-perform every Democratic presidential candidate since Lyndon Johnson in 1964."
Obama leads John McCain, 53-to-42-percent, just four days before the election.
No Democrat running for President in New Hampshire has received more than 50-percent of the vote in the past 44 years.
The race for U.S. Senate is leaning towards the Democrats as well.
According to Survey USA, former governor Jeanne Shaheen leads incumbent Republican Sen. John Sununu, 53-to-40 percent.
Governor John Lynch, a Democrat, leads Republican challenger Joe Kenney by a wide margin, 65-to-28.
Survey USA spoke to 682 registered voters in New Hampshire.
In the congressional races, Democrats are also leading according to the latest polls from
WMUR.
Rep. Carol Shea-Porter leads Republican former Rep. Jeb Bradley in a tight race, 44-to-41 percent.
Democratic U.S. Rep. Paul Hodes leads Republican challenger Jennifer Horn 54-to-26 percent.
