University polls.  There is only one that I really trust in PA, and this one isn't it.

There's no reason to distrust university polls. Private-sector pollsters hate them because they hate having competitors who don't need to turn a profit or even break even.

Ah, they use college students.

Ever been in a call center? If you're expecting a horde of highly motivated and trained professionals, you're in for a surprise.

Yes, I've done polling.  Except for the occasional very well run poll, these are usually a step up from a push poll.
