Opinion Savvy is releasing a South Carolina poll tomorrow morning.  PPP will poll SC as well, but not until after the GOP debate, so it'll probably be almost a week before it comes out.  I'm sure there are others in the works by other pollsters, but I don't know which ones.

I asked if PPP would do a Nevada poll, their response:

How much is it?  We could raise the $ on Kickstarter.

Or maybe there's a rich around here who will pay for it.  Torie maybe?  Tongue

I wonder if they'd be open to push polling for Jim Gilmore...

There's a decent chance Nevada polls wouldn't be that accurate anyway.

They might be wildly inaccurate, yet important nonetheless for the expectations game.

I think the Zogby poll was just dumb luck for that firm.  There's no way they nailed it due to sound methodology.

In the polling for the pre-Super Tuesday primary contests for both parties in 2008, Zogby actually did about as well as any other pollster out there.  The speculation was that he was just good at guessing though, rather than actually giving us legit polls.
