Surprised about Quinnipiac... their polls are usually pretty left-leaning in my experience (which is funny since I go here and it is one of the most apathetic schools around)
The Franklin and Marshall/Hearst poll,fascinating... any idea of their accuracy? seems counter to a lot of the polls the media is throwing at us....
looks like McCain pulled in a lot more independents since june than Obama
Wow and this part is particularly fascinating:
Concerned if McCain Elected President
Yes
16% - GOP
72% -Dems
47% -Independents
Concerned if Obama Elected President
Yes
82% -GOP
39% -Dems
60% -Independents
I thought the 47% was bad until I sawa that 60%...... so assuming all three are equal in number, which they obviously aren’t though that means that an average of 45% while Obama’s is 60.333%...
The difference is the methodology employed, F + M uses 41% dems, 35% Repubs and 21% Indes. This poll was formerly known as the “Keystone Poll.”
