Not this crap again!
Carter actually was leading RR just a few months before the general, and we all know how that turned out.
Let me guess the poll is highly weighted towards democrats
Carter was dropping like a lead balloon by convention time. The organizers of the DEM (according to the media) asked delegates not to “Boo” when Carter came to the mike to give his acceptance speech. After Reagan’s acceptance speech Reagan’s stock rose and he pulled ahead of Clinton and never looked back.
