An interesting thing about this poll is that Romney is getting 6% more of his base than Obama is of his. (97% of Republicans for Romney, 91% of Democrats for Obama). The independent number is a little troubling, but this poll was taken a couple days ago in aftermath of the Hurricane (Oct 30 - Nov 2) so Obama probably got a bump from that which has already worn off.

Yup. 4 day sample. I expect Romney’s numbers to improve as storm days fall off.

D33/R29/I34 If anybody is interested.

Seems a little high on the independents, about right on democrat, and laughably low on Republicans (29% was the 2008 turnout). 35D/36R/29I is what Gallup says is the current makeup. Re-average for that and Romney has a 2 or 3 point lead.

In 2004 Bush got only 93% of the GOP (Kerry 89% of Dem vote) and Kerry won the Indies by 1%. It appears to be at least a D+5 poll. Still a pretty good poll for Romney.

If the hurricane bump hasn’t already worn off, it will likely be pretty much gone in another couple of days.
