Latest Zogby Tracking Shows Big Shift for Bush (Monday, 25 October, 2004)
NEWSMAX ^ | Monday, 25 October, 2004

Posted on 10/24/2004 9:46:31 PM PDT by Happy2BMe

The latest Zogby tracking poll out Sunday -- with just ten days until Election Day -- shows President Bush and Senator Kerry still locked in a two-point standoff -- 48% to 46%.

But Zogby notes the President has turned in a second day of strong polling.

Pollster John Zogby: "Another good single day of polling for President Bush.

In today's sample alone, he leads 50% to 43% - the first time we've seen either candidate hit 50%.

Each candidate continues to tighten his own constituency, and Undecided voters are now at only 4%."

The telephone poll of 1207 likely voters was conducted from Thursday through Saturday (October 21-23, 2004). The margin of error is +/- 2.9 percentage points.

Wow! Connecticut. Could it be partly the 9/11 effect, being so close to New York City?

Ipsos is a European company (HQ is in Paris, I think) and, as far as I know, hasn't done much in the U.S. They do get their polls correct in Europe but their methods are likely different. Even if they have bought a polling company in the U.S., I suspect they require adherence to their methodology. I have a friend who does focus groups for them and the report is hundreds of pages where a report done in the U.S. is usually less than 30 or 40 pages.

He really does seem to have all his stuff in one sock, doesn't he?

3.  Democratic get-out-the-vote

Special interests serving the Democratic party developed an intimidating get-out-the-vote machine during the 90's.  That process culminated in an heroic effort in 2000.  The result?  Dubya took the best punch well-heeled civil rights activists and unions had to offer and still came out on top.   Those Democratic special interests will be hard-pressed to match that performance and even less likely to exceed it.

The only reason it was close in 2000 was the DUI media conspiracy a few days prior.

The pollsters were wrong in 2000 because they didn't account for the corruption and fraud the 'Rats perpetrated, with multiple voting, registering dead people, etc., etc. In Minnesota, you don't need photo ID to vote if another registered voter will vouch for you, so you can vote multiple times, so long as you have accomplices at each polling station.

What pollster asks "Are you planning to vote multiple times in the election?" or "Does the Motor Voter Act give you the Constitutional Right to game the American political system?"

But Zogby has Bush down in Colorado. Guess Kerry's visit there improved his situation. This doesn't match his Coors lead of +5. This is not good as everyone else has CO in the Rep. column.

So, the polls now look pretty much as they did just before the 2000 elections. That's not too encouraging at all.

I'm told that women are being oversampled in a lot of these polls...makes sense as women are most often at home to answer the phones!

I have been waiting for that newspaper for years! Can you imagine the lead President Bush would have if we had an opposing paper right now?

Note in your polls that they all got Bush right. If results are consistent and W is up to 50% in four or five pols and at 49 in two or three others, he should win the election.
