As the campaigns wind down, Iowa and North Carolina split between President Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney, while in Colorado, both candidates are tied.
In Iowa, RCP's average show the president leading the Republican by 2.3 points.
The latest Rasmussen Reports poll of likely Iowa voters reveal Obama and Romney each earning 48 percent of support.
Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling shows that Romney is leading Obama 49-48.
On Thursday, the president's first stop on his campaign's 48-hour fly-around-campaign marathon extravaganza was in Iowa.
"It's up to you, Iowa -- right here, right now, today," the president said. "You've got a chance to choose the path that we're going to take from here. You can choose the top-down policies that got us into this mess, or you can choose the policies that are helping us to get out of this mess."
On Friday, Romney took his campaign to Iowa for a "closing argument."
"This election is a choice, a choice between the status quo - going forward with the same policies of the last four years - or instead, choosing real change, change that offers promise, promise that the future will be better than the past," Romney said.
According to a new NBC News-Wall Street Journal-Marist poll, Obama and Romney are tied at 48 percent among likely voters in Colorado.
A Purple Strategies poll has the president up by one percent.
Public Policy Polling says Obama now leads Romney 51-47, up from a 50-47 spread last week.
In North Carolina, many polls indicate that Romney will carry the state.
Real Clear Politics average has Romney leading by nearly four points, 50.3 to 46.5.
According to projections by The New York Times, North Carolina is leaning Republican and Democrats are "starting to reduce their investment, which signals the state is likely starting to tilt in the Republican direction." The Times did, however, note that the "Republicans are keeping watch because early voting pushed Mr. Obama over the top four years ago."
