The poll’s margin of error mean that it’s a statistical tie between Obama and a generic republican.

The GOP poll’s MOE also means that Mitt and Sarah are essentially in a statistical tie.

If a candidate gets 44% in a poll with a MOE of plus or minus 3 percent, that means his actual number could be anywhere between 41% and 47%, inclusive.
