RINO Bob deserves a status lower than RINO. Bob's daily routine is to find something new to tax. Governor Tax Err Shaft Err Taft probably will come up with a toiletpaper consumption tax very soon. He is getting ready to double the beer tax. Tax, tax, tax, tax, tax!
He is anti-gun. He lied about that fact. Nothing gets done without the approval of the liberal media elite in this state. If they are for it, well then RINO Bob is for it.
At a Bush rally in Cincinnati last spring, this man was booed by 13,000 people in his own hometown.
All around.....it's just bad!
Ohio Ping Alert!
RINO Bob hits a new low. (19% approval rating)
Not really. Democrats average 49%, Republicans average 48%. No significant difference.
Haven't you ever heard of "Random Digit Dial"?
SurveyUSA's polls use RDD sampling. Business numbers are excluded, but campaign headquarters are usually so recently established that their numbers aren't in the business phone book yet and they therefore have a nonzero probability of being called.
Most major pollsters use RDD because voters with unlisted numbers can still be reached.
Mason-Dixon was the best major state pollster in 11/04 if you only count candidate races, but if you include ballot measures than SurveyUSA was the best. Mason-Dixon's average spread error was 2.7 points on their 36 candidate races, but 3.7 when the 6 statewide ballot measures they did are included. SurveyUSA's average error was 3.0 for their 50 candidate races, also 3.0 if you include 8 ballot measures. Details on SurveyUSA's website. (The above numbers only count the 15 pollsters who did more than 5 statewide races; there were some local pollsters who only polled a few contests who were even more accurate.)
Your recollection is incorrect. SurveyUSA's average bias in 49 President, Senate, and Governor races was +0.1 points in a pro-Democrat direction, statistically negligible.
However, SurveyUSA did have a pro-Dem bias of about 1.0 points in PRESIDENTIAL contests; the errors in the Senate and Governor contests happened to tend in a Republican direction and it all balanced out. Most other pollsters were significantly more pro-Democrat. Details on SurveyUSA's website.
And where are these numbers derived from?

Taft is unpopular, but not THAT unpopular.
Taft is term limited and will not run again.
(Send in the Posse)
Do we still have one?
That's the only reason I can think of for them giving a 54% approval rating to Dirk Kempthorne.
I am surprise Perry is that high.
My relatives in the buckeye state advise me that, not only does he like to raise taxes, he also likes to raises fees, such as, driver license fees.
I'll bet all of the 600 polled in Pennsylvania lived in Philadelphia.
Neither. He has taxed the hell out of us.
Mark Warner? 55%?
Bolshevik.
