Zogby 16 state polls

May 18-23

Bush and Kerry may be speaking to all of America, but their campaign advisers are focusing on a narrower slice of the population and targeting the candidates' messages to voters in particularly contentious states. Zogby Interactive is conducting polls in 16 of those states chosen by WSJ.com. See the latest results.

I don't trust zogby polls, they were way off in 2002.

They were way off in 2000, as well. Very few of his state polls were anywhere close, just his composite - which suggests an accident.

Zogby was kicked around badly on FR before the 2000 election but he was closer than anyone else to picking it right.

Only in his composite. His state-by-state was all over the place.

It isn't looking great for Bush at the moment. He can turn it around, but he needs to do something to do that.

Should Kerry win, and the Dems take the Senate and House, then our stock market would be much like the Indian stock market last week. Geez. I don't think the Dems have a great shot at the house, particularly with redistricting in Texas, but if Bush keeps wallowing in the polls, the Dems could sweep. Then your investments are going to be in the toilet...

I used to take part in those polls, and you would be surprised how many ethnicities I claimed at one time or another.

To me, it's just a slightly more scientific internet poll than the ones MSNBC etc. conduct on their websites that get freeped regularly.

I think Zog tries to correct the participants per his little internal weighting system. Still, the sample is by no means random. Bush is losing everywhere, except Iowa, per the polls. LOL.

Click on Battleground States near the top of the page to the right, and then use your cursor to scan over the usual suspect states. You know, Florida, Ohio, Penn, Wisconsin, Nevada, New Hampshire, etc. Tennessee is included for some odd reason, where Bush has a narrow lead.

The only people who believe polls are Liberals and Democrats anyway. Poll dreck is the byproduct of Liberal insecurity, imo.

I just thought you may want to be mindful of his record when you choose to dismiss his polling..

Of course, his misfires are also notorious - the 2002 midterms in particular.

Real inspired thinking. And if Bush wins what does it mean? Six months before the election and you can already predict the how the war in Iraq will go. You must be rich with your clairvoyant abilities.

That's very good news because he won the prize in 2000. Do you have some good examples?
