Arnold's approval has moved 4 points. The margin of error in the poll is 4 points.
Just letting you know.
I think the bigger concern for the Governor is that he has an almost 2-to-1 disapproval, which is a bit out of the 4% MoE.
Also, John, if you look at the polling dates, you'll notice that two of them are three days apart (the last two). If you want meaningful numbers, look at the difference between the latest numbers and the one from a month ago - and his disapproval has gone up 9 points, and his approval down 5.
I'm just saying, don't read too much into it. People tend to do that with polls.
Also, Pete Wilson had NEARLY IDENTICAL NUMBERS at this point in 1993, and a far stronger opponent than any that Arnold faces (The Bill Clinton story notwithstanding).
Granted Wilson's #'s were in the same range & he did win. But the fact is Arnold's #'s right now are very ppor, and while things can change it doesn't look good for him
