Did they over poll Rats? I don’t see how if Romney has a 10 pt. lead among independents that the race could be tied.
From late March concerning an Ohio senate race: “As is the case with President Barack Obama’s lead in the White House race, the Democratic margin is made up almost completely of the votes of women,” said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. “
No. It looks like they polled MSNBC, ABC, CBS and NBC along with the coffee guy at Politico. Hell, they probably polled the janitor at GWU, too.
It has to be an oversampling of Dems. I wonder if all these polls are taking into account the current shrinking of the Dem voter rolls and growth of independent and GOP? Given that Romney shows the lead among independents, it is hard to believe this poll.
Of course, I am estimating that at this stage, the fact that Obama is a few ticks below 50% and that Romney is ahead are both good signs, regardless of the poll internals.
