Sign O the Times
Arizona-Pres
Myers Research (D) & Grove Insight (D). 10/23-24. Likely voters. MoE 4% (No trend lines)
Likely voters
McCain (R) 44
Obama (D) 40
Early voters (34% of the sample)
McCain (R) 46
Obama (D) 47
Sample is 40 percent Republican, 33 Democratic, and 26 percent independent. ASU has its own survey coming Monday, and they’ve hinted at similar results.
Am I correct in presuming that the reason the sample is skewed toward the Republican side aisle is because that’s the historic voting percentages in the state?
Regardless, who here can say bloodbath?

And it’s not an outlier.
Ouch.

Cameron #1: it would either be that or registration percentages in that state. In any case, they should re-weight according to a measure like that, so the raw percentages in the sample shouldn’t matter that much.
