The job approval numbers are of “adults” - not even of registered voters. Not even worth mentioning or discussing.
The horse race number is for registered voters.
yep.
this also includes both Clinton and Obama speeches but not the jobs report.
with the bad job report out today we will see Obama’s bounce die soon.
Based on historical trends, Romney will get 80% of undecided so he would still win 52-48 even with this poll.. until Obama gets over 50% on consistent basis, I am not woryying.
I would argue the horse race number is for registered, LIKELY voters as opposed to unregistered, likely voters.
...might as well just go to the full Chavez mode now, and declare it to be 100%...
Gold standard: Likely voters. Pollsters won’t get serious until their credibility is on the line 1-2 weeks weeks before the election.
“Gallup tracks daily the percentage of Americans who approve or disapprove of the job Barack Obama is doing as president. Daily results are based on telephone interviews with approximately 1,500 national adults; Margin of error is ±3 percentage points.”
Anyone that answered the phone is polled in this crap. A high school girl that wishes to be lady gaga could say, “like I really love obama... he's like way cool. He is doing a great job"... or an illegal mexican invader or perhaps a Somalian refugee or any of the 94% of blacks that will vote for him... like I said... any voice answering the phone is in this poll... and most will NEVER CAST A VOTE! **** gallup... this destroys their reputation... they are being coerced into this garbage and they do not have the balls or legal team to stand up to the new black panther party leader... eric holder.
