This poll was conducted the same week as the Rasmussen poll.  The only question is, which do you trust more?

The most recent survey by Fairleigh Dickinson University's PublicMind was conducted by telephone from October 4 through October 9 using a randomly selected sample of 602 likely voters statewide aged 18 and over.  The sampling error for 602 adults is +/- 4 percentage points at the 95 percent level of confidence. Survey results are also subject to non-sampling error. This kind of error, which cannot be measured, arises from a number of factors including, but not limited to, non-response (eligible individuals refusing to be interviewed), question wording, the order in which questions are asked, and variations among interviewers. All PublicMind interviews are conducted by TMR, Inc. of Cedar Knolls, NJ.  Professionally trained interviewers use a CATI (Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing) system. Random selection is achieved through computerized random-digit dialing. This technique gives every person with a phone number (including those with unlisted numbers) an equal chance of being selected
