The Atlas seems to be a mix of California and New York when it comes to Bush's approval:

I don't see the polls on the website.

They are not released yet on that page. You have to click on the June tracking pages of each state.

For example here in CA and scroll over to July:

Can't they do some different states? It's the same 16 states as last month.

You are right. They once polled all 50 states until a year ago. Then they started polling in just these 16 states for approval ratings of Bush, governors and senators as well as primaries. I don´t know why they stopped polling in the other 34 states. Maybe they are saving money.

A poll from Colorado once in a while would be nice. Allard, Ritter and Bush approval and an early look Udall vs. Schaffer would be great too ... But I don´t expect that until September or even next year.

How did you find that page? I can't find it for any other state.

It´s a little gimmick Go to the page here:

http://www.surveyusa.com/50StateTracking.html

scroll down to the June Bush Approvals, for example California (061207 - California Approval Rating President Bush), click on that page, then you see the question:

"Do you approve or disapprove of the job George W. Bush is doing as President? "

Left to that is the number "1" and a big "T".

"T" means "Tracking" - click on that "T". A new page opens, scroll over to July and you got the ratings. Do that with every state.

Are you sure these are accurate? The poll also claimed that 51% of Kansans are pro-choice.

The US is about 60-40 pro choice, so it doesn´t really surprise me, allthough I thought KS may be 40-60. Here you have the full list of all states from 2005:

Does anyone know what that "Does the U.S. need a..." question is?

Just hover over "Does the U.S. need a..." and the full question appears:

Does the US need a draft ?

[Tender Branson]

Yeah. It is pretty funny.

Yep, especially the fact that only 10% of the young Massachoosens approve of Bush.

[Tender Branson]

10%? Lol....must be the rich bible throwers.

Walter Mitty ?

Age: 29
