Zogby Goes Liberal In Florida Race

The pre-election polls for governor in Florida are tightening, according to John Zogby. Jeb Bush has a 48-45 lead over Bill McBride, who narrowly edged out Janet El Reño in the Democrat primary, thanks to, again, a screwed-up Election Day in Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties.

John Zogby Now, folks, Terry McAuliffe was on the Today Show Tuesday, and he revealed that Bill McBride's finance chairman is his father-in-law. That's an interesting little tidbit, which really shows you how incestuous the Democratic Party has become. I, frankly, don't believe this latest Zogby poll.

I got my original precinct voter registration list from the Republican Party's Bush liason before the primary in 2000 and have updated it by copying off the lists of registered voters posted outside each precinct polling place.

I have been meaning to go down to the county Registrar of Voters office and see if a private citizen can get access to these lists.

Check with your local Republican party activists. They may know.

I just sent in my 2001 tax forms and will now turn my attention to the election for the little I might be able to do.

i believe that its public info. after all, the rpof has a list of every registered republican in the state, and sent them all absentee ballot request forms. now we're calling them all to make sure they turn in the ballots. must be an old list though, cause we get people who say they're democrats now once in a while. anyway, we've got over 10000 calls to make just in orange county, and we're short on volunteers.

We found out about McAuliffe's father-in-law right before the primary. McBride was meant to win all along and don't let anyone tell you any different. Plan was to have him gain a lot of momentum by coming from behind to beat Reno.

Problem was that Janet didn't roll over and play dead -- she brought out the fraud. Without the fraud in S. Florida, Reno would have been the candidate.

Every last Republican in Florida needs to get out and vote! Nothing should stop them from voting this November, no excuses accepted!

[PhiKapMom]

Today he decreed that Zogby is now a shill for the democratic party.

And to think I got clobbered for saying that Zogby knew about the RAT fraud that was going to happen in So FL and that is why he changed his poll numbers to reflect that fraud. I will always believe that happened in 2000 because without the fraud, Zogby's numbers would have been way off in FL in 2000!

Then recently I said on here that Zogby was nothing but a RAT puppet and got clobbered again that I didn't know what I was talking about. Looks like I am not the only one that thought Zogby polls were phoney and not to be believed!

This is great news about Rush and Zogby. Thanks so much for posting is!

I volunteer for Keller and that's how I was able to attend the live debate last night.
That's great that you have a ticket to next week's debate! I am going to attend a "debate party" and watch it with other Republicans and volunteers. It is pretty hard to find a ticket to the actual event.
As for last night's debate, things got pretty heated and Diaz ended up looking very defensive and childish (typical Democrat when pushed in the corner). At one point he said to Keller, "next time don't spit on me when you are talking"!! His audience of 20 was a bit louder than Keller's, mostly due to a gay old hispanic man in the front row. He continuously hooted, hollered, and sang out during the debate. It was very strange and I think he did more to hurt Diaz than help.

I did hear Rush on the radio today and he flatout said that Zogby is now flacking for the dem candidates and is no longer the trustworty pollster of days gone by.

Then why are some GOP candidates up in his polls?

I am not saying that his methodology is perfect. I'm saying that Zogby dosen't consistently give good news to Democrats, which makes the argument Limbaugh made weak.

Limbaugh is a windbag.

Why do you excerpt the full article, then provide a link that's only good for those who pay Rush $50?

I already explained, and apologized for that mistake in post #14. Do you need another apology? A good grovel, perhaps?

(FWIW, I pay FR more than twice that per year, and get a lot more bang for the buck).

Good for you.

Every time a news report comes out saying that McBride is pulling closer to Bush I can't help but think that the Dems are preparing us for the election they're planning to steal. Call me naive, but it would seem unbelievable that a State would throw out a Governor that is the BROTHER of the President. They know the President takes his phone calls. He hasn't done anything disasterous, he was fairly popular, so why the big change? Can somebody in Florida explain this to me?
