Which election featured the first independent media matchup poll, and did it get the election right?

Wasn't there a 1936 poll that had Alf Landon defeating Franklin Roosevelt in a 57-43% landslide?

Let me explain why the poll had Alf Landon beating FDR by a sizeable margin. The poll was done by telephone and the average working person who was an FDR supporter did not have a telephone.
