Mind you, the quoted poll is of “registered voters”, which is pretty much worthless.

The only polls worth looking at are LIKELY Voters, and then you still need to look at the internals, to see if one party or the other is plussed-up more than reality. Most of the Obama-on-top polls are +8 weighted towards Democrats. . .

the second line of the second paragraph claims this is likely voters...that said there’s no link in the story to the polling data...

Thanks for saving me the trouble of looking for that.....

The closer we get to end. the more important the "Likely voter" polls become and the "Register voter" polls become inaccurate.....
