Let's see how Zogby's state preictions were, shall we?

...........Zogby.........Actual
AZ........B+6..............B+11
AR........B+3..............B+9
CO.......Even.............B+7
FL........K+1..............B+5
IA........K+5..............B+1
MI.......K+6...............K+3
MN......K+6...............K+3
MO......B+3...............B+8
NV.......Even.............B+3
NH.......K+5..............K+1
NM.......K+3..............B+1
NC.......B+3..............B+13
OR.......K+10............K+5
OH.......B+2..............B+2
PA........Huh?.............K+2
TN........B+4..............B+14
VA........B+??............B+8
WA.......K+11...........K+7
WV.......B+4.............B+13
WI.......K+6..............K+1

Keep in mind some of these may change.

FL, OH and PA were all described as "Trending Kerry".

Guess he should have gone with his polls, not the exit polls.

That's actually marginally better than he did in 2002 Smiley

BTW....

Hmmm....

19/20 races right (They had Bush +1 in Minnesota he lost within MOE)

19/20 races within the 4% MOE

Average error of 1.75%

Somebody told me once this was a pretty decent firm.

you know how Zobgy yesterday said expect surprises in "CO, AR, WV and PA"

I have a feeling his PA surpise wasnt Bush only losing only 51-49

I think we can guess his surprise was Bush losing by like 10% there based on the exit polls he used to make his 5pm "predictions"
