Dear Mad_Tom_Rackham,

As I pointed out in #8, it doesn't appear that Newsweek used a weighting of 38% R, 31% D, 31% I. That's just the raw numbers.

Question.

Am I correct in thinking that the 38%R, 31%D, and 31%I are just the breakdown of the folks first reached on the polling call?

And that the pollsters compared these numbers to the expected turnout numbers and weighted them to fit the turnout model before releasing them?
