Just as I condemned Princeton's previous fifteen point lead for Obama "poll," so I must condemn this new Princeton "poll," but unlike others, will be specific.
Princeton has a record in its Newsweek polls of significantly overstating the Democrat support in about sixty per cent of its polls, and significantly overstating the Republican support in about ten percent of its polls.
If you look at the composition of the so called sample, you will see it is really weirdly skewed:
Party Affiliation This poll Reality Analysis
Democrat 32 % 42 % Far fewer Democrats in poll than there should be.
Republican 31 32 About right
Independents 37 26 More independents in the poll than there should be.
