I am not sure what it says about their loyalties, but they are the only ones calling the race in Florida as close. Everyone else has Mitt up by at least 6 to 9 points. These guys have it pretty much statistically dead even.
Considering they are Republicans, and they want to gain credibility with their polling and consulting, I trust them more then i do all these leftists agendized polling companies.
The below part is from their site. it gives us an idea of there recent work. Problem is they don't have a long track record, but no one began a business with a track record, they need to build one. So as I said, they cannot afford to fail.
Dixie Strategies’ state-of-the-art dialing system can provide a wide variety of automated calling services. Dixie Strategies has provided polling services for many well-known elected officials and candidates, including: Speaker Daniel Webster, Rep. Kurt Kelly. Rep. Charles Van Zant, Col. Allen West, and many more. Automated calls are also an affordable way to announce events, endorsements and to turn out voters.
From all I learned about these guys and their consultant firm, I like the poll numbers they released, and feel very confident in Newts chance to win Florida. If Newt wins, where all the other pollsters show him losing, these guys could rake in the business from Republicans running for office all over the country.
Never heard of this group before, and their poll is either out of date or an outlier. The last 6-7 polls have Romney up +8 on average. And a new Mason/Dixon poll out late tonite has Romney up 11.
The tide has turned away from Newt in Florida this week. It could still swing back. But 8 points is a lot ot makup in 2 days.
Thanks for reviewing this poll. We hear from our FL FReepers on the ground and we get mixed messages, depending on their locations. Romney is spreading a lot of money and 24/7 attack ads against Newt. He’s concentrating on senior citizens and Latinos, with the worst and most vile ads. The guy is a slimebag as bad as the democrats but he won’t dare to call obama “a socialist.”
Newt would win this, but for Santorum, but it is what it is; a split vote.
There’s still time and with prayers and good fortune, Newt Gingrich can pull off a win!
Sarah Palin said VOTE NEWT!
Herman Cain endorsed Newt Gingrich!
PAY ATTENTION FLORIDA VOTERS!
