It's America Research Group, so I'm not sure how good that will be, but it is what it is.

Polls that have two candidates so close are meaningless this close to an election. We get the candidate we deserve.

What’s Mass. law regarding recounts? Anyone know?

How close does it have to be?

I saw another poll just yesterday that gave Brown a four-point lead over Coakley.

I certainly hope he can pull in out.

But even if he does, I am skeptical of the Democratic leadership in the Senate: Will they actually seat Brown in time for him to cast an all-important vote as regarding healthcare-reform legislation? Or will they tie up his nomination until after the vote is made?

as long as the polls are within the MOE, they can stuff the ballot boxes to tip the scales. if the race was 5 or more points, they couldn’t get away with it.

the dems are famous for this, especially during 2008. votes tallied from electronic voting machines were notoriously opposite the votes tallied from regular polling places. and in one precinct, the vote total for one candidate was 0... and only after 10 people came forward stating they voted for that candidate did the votes ‘appear’

expect this to occur on tuesday.

Brown needs to be over 50 in the final polls or he will lose.

I still don’t think Brown can pullit off. MA is too strongly Democrat for Indepents and Republicans to put Brown over the top. If he does win, it will be close and then the SEIU and ACORN will spring into action and thousands of Coakly votes will suddenly appear to put her over the top. Then instead of fighting, the Republicans will wlak away with their tails between the legs like they always do when the Dems steal an election.

Brown should get in touch with James Baker III. He is to only person to stop a Democrat from stealing an election so far.

Coakley leads 47% to 46% among voters 50 and older.

The old MA liberals still hanging on. The younger group seems to have gotten it somewhat as Brown leads there.

Somebody needs to tell this National Review Costa guy that the election is to replace Paul Kirk, not Teddy Kennedy.

Evidently this “conservative” magazine thinks it’s Kennedy’s seat too.

Coakley leads 50% to 44% among women.

Show those women that picture of Brown in Cosmo. As a woman myself, all I can say is: HUNK!

Needs more than that. If he doesn’t beat her by 10%, he’ll never be seated.

Brown is ahead, but not by a safe margin. PRAY and get out the Vote!

Massachusetts Voters, we envy you. With your vote for Scott Brown you are saying No to socialism, No to creeping communism, No to the Healthcare Bill, No to Cap and Tax, No to Amnesty for illegals, No to the Czars, No to diversity, No to affirmative action, No to endless Welfare, No to government takeover of Private Business, No to the carnage wrought by Ted Kennedy, No to “Green” as it’s the new “Red”, No to Card Check, No to Union Control, No to Gun Control, No to expanding bloated Government, No to Taxation without representation, No to more government rules and regulations, No to the Bank Tax, No to gutting our Military, No to Appeasement, No to Tyranny!

When each of you go into the voting booth, know there are 1000 Patriots from across the country behind you saying Hoorah when you vote for Brown!

Citizens of Massachusetts, this is your Concord and Lexington! We are with you on the bridge.

5% of Republicans remain undecided.

Since they admit to be republicans in Ma, I don't really understand how they can be undecided. There are some pretty stark contrasts between the two (sorry, three) candidates.

On DUmmy Underground they are convinced this a voter revolt for not being “progressive” ENOUGH. If you can believe that.

In a one party state like Mass. and especially with it being a Union state, I think the Democrats that are going to vote for Brown would lie about it in the polls. Especially the union members. If the Democrats or Union members feels their party is out of touch they either will not show up at the polls or they vote opposite of what they were polled.

I have a couple of questions
The likely voters - there is no where that kept track of the unlikely voters by affiliation or at all? Is the ending sample after kicking out unlikely voters based on the % of total registered voters by affiliation? Or did they select the list based on % of affiliation and just kick out the unlikely voters.

In other words does their sampling take into consideration the number of unlikely voters that are registered by affiliation?

If you start with a list of registered voters and make calls based on % of affiliation and one party is not as engaged as the other party, you would end up with a higher % of likely voters being from the other affiliations. Maybe starting with 1500 people to get 1000 likely voters.

If you keep replacing the unlikely voters with likely voters from the same affiliation so that your 1000 reflects the % of affiliated voters, you would end up overstating the party that was not engaged.

Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles! I just got off the phone with my 88 year-old father; a died in the wool, life-long democrat who was born in and has lived in Mass for over 70 years. HE HAS NEVER VOTED FOR A REPUBLICAN… NEVER. After polite chit chat about the NFL play off games I dared broach the subject and asked him if he was going to vote on Tuesday (every time “politics” have come up in the past he has berated me with tirades about those “evil republicans”). Well, he came right out and told me… “I AM going to vote on Tuesday and I am seriously thinking of voting for Scott Brown.” Needless to say I was and am totally ASTONISHED… ASTONISHED (I did not let him know in the least and kept my heart-felt joy and enthusiasm at his answer to my self so as to not “scare him off”)!

I tactfully asked him WHY he was going to vote for Brown and his answer was: “Because of the healthcare bill Obama is trying to pass.” I carefully agreed with him and reinforced the fact that Obama wants to gut Medicare/Medicaid by taking away 500 BILLION DOLLARS from the system and that if he adds 40 million people to the rolls, especially illegal aliens the health care system would collapse… I told him that Brown is an honorable man and that he is totally opposed to the “healthcare” bill and would vote against it… MY DAD AGREED! I was flabbergasted!

If my own father; a life-long Massachusetts FDR Democrat who has voted for EVERY Kennedy, Kerry/democrat to ever come down the pike, is going to vote for Scott Brown, a REPUBLICAN, BECAUSE OF HIS OPPOSITION TO Obama and his evil healthcare debacle then things are looking VERY promising for Scott Brown and we could all be in for an incredible victory on Tuesday. To this end I am fervently praying.
