Registered voters.
1,000 adults - 250 cell phones
Looks skewed - as usual - when you add “strong” and “not very strong” for each party:
Strong Democrat .....................21
Not very strong Democrat .............8
Independent/lean Democrat .......... 15
Strictly Independent ................16
Independent/lean Republican ........ 14
Not very strong Republican ...........7
Strong Republican ...................15
Other (VOL) ..........................3
Not sure .............................1
Thus by adding the two criteria you have a poll that essentially is 29% D and 22% R thus erasing Obama’s lead especially when most polls show Independents well in Romney’s corner.
It’s not even registered voters. It’s just 1000 citizens who answered the phone.
Not even -- "1000 adults."
