Obama Has Equaled His Biggest Gallup Lead Yet Over Mitt Romney

Brett LoGiurato/Business Insider

President Barack Obama's lead over Republican nominee Mitt Romney ticked up a point Wednesday in Gallup's daily tracking poll, equaling his biggest lead yet in the Gallup survey
Obama leads Romney, 50 percent to 43 percent. That matches his lead from the April 21-26 period, right after the general election began as Romney virtually locked up the Republican nomination. 
Obama's 7-point lead is up from 6 points on Tuesday. Romney dropped a point day to day
Obama's approval rating is also up in the latest daily tracking numbers. His approval rating hit 51 percent, above the 50-percent threshold that usually ensures re-election for incumbents. His disapproval rating is also down a point to 42 percent.
