It's been a rough month since the Research 2000 fraud was exposed, but we're now ready to jump back into the polling game.

We've settled on two separate pollsters -- one to do our election horserace polling, and one to do our weekly State of the Nation national polling.

We're still not ready to announce the latter, since we're still dealing with some last minute negotiations. But we can announce our horserace pollster: Public Policy Polling (PPP).

We obviously wanted a credible firm to excise the ghost of R2K, but we also wanted an accurate one. Well, according to Nate Silver's pollster rankings, PPP was among the most accurate. Strip out the firms that focus on a single state (like U Cincy, Field, etc), and it's top 10.
