| QStarNews Quick Poll Romney/Ryan 55% Obama/Biden 44% The QStarNews Quick Poll is the first trial run preceding the upcoming QStarNews poll on the presidential race and current events. This election season has seen so many polls heavily skewed and poorly weighted, that show skewed and inaccurate results. The purpose of this poll is to present the most accurate results possible based on the latest of what is known about the electorate and voter behavior and other statistical information available. The QStarNews poll works with the premise that the partisan makeup of the electorate 37.6 percent Republicans, 33.3 percent Democrats and 29.1 percent independent voters. Additionally, our model is based on the electoral including approximately 41.6 percent self-described conservatives, 32.6 percent self-described moderates and 25.8 percent self-described liberals. Republicans are 68 percent conservative, 27 percent moderate and 5 percent liberal. Among Democrats, 14 percent are conservative, 36 percent are moderate and 50 percent are liberal. Independents include 39 percent conservatives, 36 percent moderates and 25 percent liberals. Our polls about doubly-weighted, to doubly insure the results are most accurate and not skewed, by both party identification and self-identified ideology. For instance, no matter how many Republicans answer our survey, they are weighted at 37.6 percent. If conservatives are over-represented among Republicans in the raw sample, they are still weighted at 68 percent of Republicans regardless. This system of double weighting should insure our survey produces very accurate results, not skewed either way for the Democrats or for the Republicans. Results: The QStarNews Quick Poll We asked eight questions in this survey. The link here shows our questions. The important questions were about preference for Romney or Obama in the presidential race, approval or disapproval of President Obama's performance in office, and the generic ballot question for Congress. The web-based survey included 2075 responses surveyed between September 10-15. The poll has a margin of error of three percent. If the election were held today, would you vote for the ticket of Democratic candidates, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Bicden, or the ticket of Republican candidates, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and Congressman Paul Ryan? Romney/Ryan 55% Obama/Biden 44% Among Republicans, Democrats and Independents

Just do it.
if true, Obama is really “skewed”. Let’s hope so.
I can sell the same thing for half the price ~ my assumption will be simple ~ if you want a Republican on top, he'll be on top! $10 a copy please.
Of course you could. The leftists have been operating in just that fashion.

Come on guys — don’t you get it?
The reasons the polls are so screwed up in 0’s favor is so when the massive Dem. voter fraud is perpetrated on the US... the media and Dems can just say “Well, for the last few months, the polls predicted the election would be won by zero. What’s your D&*@ problem you racists?”
It’s that simple.
I break those groups into:
1. Hope & Changers - voted Obama in 08 and regret it
2. Newer retired people who voted DEM but now want a "business man" running the country.
3. Mormon/Evangelical vote, very conservative, but not regular voters, plus the Mormon network is huge.
4. First Time Voters who came of age, graduated and have no job.
5. Black voters who don't vote "color" and want a better future instead.
6. Blue Collar Dems/Reagan Democrats who are wondering WTF happened to their party.
Union Members who will quietly vote Romney.
7. Women, who are concerned about the price of a gallon of milk, gas (usually pays the bills, too) and sees the pain in their husbands eyes because he's worried about his job.
8. Jewish voters, who are Jewish first, and Democrat second.
9. Hispanic voters who socially conservative and will vote against their kids.
10. THE BIGGEST ONES OF ALL - SENIORS/PARENTS who are angry that their kids vote got us where we are, and will vote (although they may not have voted last time).
Yeah, i know. My spreadsheets are crazy and i have so many bookmarks from demographics, et al. breakdowns from the previous elections (08, 10) that my eyes bleed.
Feel free to toss me some more variables...
"The QStarNews poll works with the premise that the partisan makeup of the electorate (is) 37.6 percent Republicans, 33.3 percent Democrats and 29.1 percent independent voters."
That's an R+4.3 correction. Since most of the polls they reference are in the D+5 to D+9 range or so, the results are about what you would expect. What you need to question is the R+4.3. Knock that down to D+1 or D+2 and the Romney numbers will look more reasonable.
But maybe we will have an R+4.3 election. That would be an election for the ages.
Simply substituting something you've concocted elsewhere for the information derived from the act of polling real people IS NOT LEGITIMATE
I proposed this could be handled much easier simply by telling you a Republican was on top ~ just send me $10 and that's what you'll get without fuss or mess or a lie that a random sample poll was actually conducted!
I believe Romney will win, and when he does I can't wait to see the reaction of liberals. Priceless.
I know, it’s like i’m Kyle and i’m talking to Cartman ~ why do i bother.
Wonder why Palin has been so quite?
the thing is changing the poll results doesn't change the election.
there's an old spanish mission in san juan capistrano. they sell amulets there that are guaranteed to "DO STUFF" ~ i'm more likely to believe in the amulets than changing poll results to impress God that your candidate is worthy of divine intervention.
you'd think they'd been happy with the wooden airplanes
