Maybe I am wrong, but I though on TV, Fox said Bush was only getting 86% of republican votes and Kerry was getting 92% of the dem vote, which surprised me based on previous polls. This PDF looks like it says the opposite. I am looking at this wrong, or did I hear wrong on the TV report?

The quick results are B47, K45 among LV; B46, K46 among RV, 3% MOE.

cmon
this looks fine people
last night wasn't even included...lol... so that WAPO guy is totally off.
just look at the trend of likely voters...Kerry has a ceiling that he just can't break.

[Uncle Hal]

A disturbing part of this poll is that 12% of Bush voters say they could change their mind verses 6% for Kerry voters.

fox polled 1200 people thur and friday nite. On friday half had seen the tape they said. Bush fell to 47-45 among likelys and dead even among registered. The thing that bothered me was Bush supporters were 87 % sure of their vote and Kerry's were 92%. I thought it was usually the opposite. Plus it looked like Bush took a hit on Friday.

Bush voters are more open minded, Kerry voters have drunk the kool-aid.

hey Hal
I don't find that very disturbing at all. We know Bush has his base- this shows me undecideds are trending towards bush...perhaps a bit hesitantly.
nothing like seeing UBL's ugly muck to scare em a little! Lets hope they feel protected by Bush.

I think what this shows us is a blip in the MOE. Kerry happened to have a good nite. Polls mean NOTHING right now. It's all about turnout. If we coast we are toast. GET OUT THE VOTE

[Hockey Mom II]

I heard it the same way that you did - it surprised me too.

Hi Krodg,

CHeck out the pdf data...last polling night was 28th.

[sam_whiskey]

If the Bin Laden tape actually causes movement toward Kerry---then I officially don't understand or recognize this country anymore.

[TBBT]

Apparently not. Looking at the link this latest poll was taken on Wednesday and Thursday. Yesterdays release was taken on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Hatred is stronger than love, is what that means.

Those numbers reflect percentages of voters who are absolutely committed to each candiate.

Bush has more independents and Dems voting for him. They are more likely to change.

This poll must be heavily weighted. Bush has 3% more independents than Dufus. Bush has 4% more Dems voting for him than Dufus has Pubs and yet Bush has only a 2% lead.

[TBBT]

Ooops! My bad... This poll was 28 and 29 October (Thur and Friday nights). I'm losing track of time...

[pgkdan]

Thursday's poll was B-50, K-45, N-0 and Undecideds 5 today Bush went from 50 to 47 but Kerry stayed at 45. It looks like Bush lost 1% to Nader (?) and 2% to undecided but Kerry gained NO support. Overall I think the swing in this poll is just statistical noise.

Evidently a lot of people in this country don't understand that a defeat for Bush is a victory for Bin Laden.

A late trend like this does not look good.

They often get the graphics backwards or wrong on FNC. I think they may have a rat working in their graphics dept.
