Chamber Releases Recall Poll - Results Indicate that Schwarzenegger Makes Significant Gains after Wednesday Debate
SACRAMENTO - The California Chamber of Commerce today released a poll regarding the recall election, showing Arnold Schwarzenegger has made significant gains over the last two weeks. The poll includes voter interviews taken after the Wednesday, September 24 debate in Sacramento, California and shows that if the election were held today, Mr. Schwarzenegger would lead Lt. Governor Cruz Bustamante and all the replacement candidates in the race.
“Earlier this month, the California Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors voted to endorse Arnold Schwarzenegger for Governor on the second question of the recall ballot. This poll shows Mr. Schwarzenegger making significant gains and is still the most competitive of the pro-jobs candidates on the ballot,” said Allan Zaremberg, President, California Chamber of Commerce.
The poll was conducted by Baselice & Associates, Inc., September 24-25, 2003 among N=804 likely voters. The results carry a margin of error of +/-3.5% at the .95 test level.
“In the second part of the recall election, voters now prefer Arnold Schwarzenegger (35%) over Cruz Bustamante (31%). Following the two frontrunners are Tom McClintock at 17%, Peter Miguel Camejo at 4%, Arianna Huffington at 3% and Larry Flynt 1%. These results included respondents who are in leaning in favor of a candidate,” said Mike Baselice, Baselice & Associates.

Arnold made a mistake when he turned down Davis' debate challenge. A debate would make the political faultline clearer.

This has 9% undecided or with others. And Larry Flynt with 1%! Maybe they were Bustamonte supporters in previous polls!

Arnold and Cruz are in dead heat, within the poll's error margin, Arnold still has twice as much as McClintock. McClintock voters can still put Bustamante into the governor's office.
To: ambrose
Once again. If only half the people planning to vote for Schwarzenegger think McClintock is a better choice and more conservative, voting for McClintock would put him over the top.
McClintock can win.

Also... the Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Arnold. So what. So did the Lincoln Club of Orange County, and their poll had Tom at 18%.
What's your point?

Tom's has less than half of Arnie's support, and is 18% away from him, just over a week away from the election. Busty-the-friendly-hispanic-racist-monte is within the margin of error of Arnie.
By any sane measure, it's well past time for Tom to get out and back the party's best shot. But Tom, despite his excellent stands on important issues, is not quite sane, I'm sorry to say....

Arnold has to earn votes. This is an election, not a coronation.

Tom McClintock keeps advancing, even without $8,000,000 big ones. Arnie keeps flushing his donations down the toilet, in the hopes of convincing enough McClintock supporters he cares about the issues that concern them. Problem is, McClintock supporters have been waiting almost two months for Arnie to address the concerns of conservative Republicans and so far, only silence from Arnie. Chances are, even if Arnie is fortunate enough to win the recall election, as governor he's gonna care even less about the issues of concern to conservative Republicans.
If Arnie loses, he only has himself to blame. Arnie has run a pathetic campaign and is hoodwinking the people of California.

Tom went from 12% to 17% since the Chamber of Commerce's last poll on Sept 1-4. Arnold has gone from 33% to 35%. LOL! At this rate Tom should beat Arnold any moment now.

To: tallhappy
"McClintock can win. " The self delusion of McClitockites is astounding.
If Arnold weren't in the race and all Republican voted for McC, he would have 35% tops.
A good fraction of Arnold's voters are Dems and Independents who would never vote for McC, they would vote for Bustamante, which would be at least 10-15%. You add that to Cruz's current 31%, that's :
Bustamante 41 or 45% to
McClintock's 35%.
McClintock cannot win under any scenarios.
But McClintock voters CAN elect Bustamante.
To: Victoria Delsoul
You seem to miss the point. Arnold and Bustamante are both stalled out. They have been ever since the post Tonight Show euphoria faded. Only McClintock has shown growth in his numbers. And it is anyone's guess as to where the undecideds will break...
