Bush builds upon his huge lead in West Virginia while Tennessee continues to be a squeaker.

Bush has lost 8% in Ohio, while Kerry continues to expand his lead in Wisconsin..

Kerry's 10% lead in MInnesota is about 9-12% different than Gallup and Mason Dixon and Rasmussen and Research 2000, but I assume it is correct.

What does Zogby do that is so different?


He uses Internet polling.  His respondents are not randomly selected, are not proven to be living where they say they are,  may not be old enough to vote, let alone registered to vote and he barely checks to see if his respondents are telling the truth.

I live in Canada and voted 6 times in Ohio.

I think this indicate some issues with his poll.

I think that maybe Zogby is just making a fool of himself this year.  In 2000, I took him as a credible source, especially since the WSJ used him as "their" pollster.  Now his results are so far out of whack that they're laughable.  If Bush is seriously faring that poorly in Minnesota, New Mexico, and Oregon, then something has radically shifted in the last few hours.

...and there's no way that Bush is up by 12+ in West Virginia.  Sorry, fellow Repubs, it's just not right.

Zogby didn't use internet polling four years ago, did he?

No internet is new for Zogby polls.
