It's inexplicable to me why Mason-Dixon is still polling registered voters.

[Eraserhead]

The only change from their last poll is that Reid moved up a point.

That still doesn't sound like a true likely voter screen to me.

Well, it´s what Mason-Dixon always used as "Likely Voters".

People who say they went to the polls in previous elections are almost certain to vote again this year.

So, Mason-Dixon thinks there will be zero first time voters or what?

Or voters who vote irregularly?

When you are called by a pollster and you are a registered first time voter, you can also say that you vote regularly, namely in this election.

     I am surprised that it is this close. I'd expect something like 48-40 in favor of Reid by now.

And if the GOP hadn't nominated a crazy tea partier, they'd have this one in the bag. I'm getting so frustrated now.

Yeah, I'm sure "chickens-for-care" Lowden or ex-Democrat Tarkanian would have done much better.

     They probably would have. Not "have it in the bag" good, but it takes a special kind of bad in a candidate to not be able to beat a Democrat as unpopular in Harry Reid in a swing state in a strongly Republican year.
