The Xbox Live team that monitors the transmission of Presidential debates and the instant polling done during them says that most of those who watched the second confrontation between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have declared the incumbent President as its winner.

Microsoft says that more than 100,000 Xbox Live community members were involved in the debate and they answered no less than 70 questions during the event.

2,000 of those who were part of the audience identified themselves as undecided and 51 percent of them declared Obama the winner, with just 17% saying that Mitt Romney was the best debater.

32% were not sure who performed better.

52 percent of them also though that President Obama was the most truthful while only 17% gave the same label to Mitt Romney.

Xbox Live watchers also saw Barack Obama as being more specific about his plans and are more inclined to vote for them after the debate.

Xbox Live will also stream the last Presidential debate, on October 22.
