another error here that i have been thinking about...

the over sample here of the black voters runs along the lines of BLACK POPULATION percentage (16-18%) not a traditional breakdown of the voting electorate...

this poll is a laugher....

The old media is in a last chance power try. If mac wins they know that the final thread of there influence snapped . They will stop at nothing. In the end it won’t be enough.

Good catch. Blacks make up approximately 12% of the population, but my understanding is that they they make up only about 10% of registered voters. So, not only is the poll oversampling Democrats, but also it is oversampling the most reliably Democratic voting block among the Democrats.
