The poll was largely of a local at-large council race.  The presidential horse race question is a typical question asked in a poll of a lower-tier race, in part, to calibrate the survey.  That they released it is a good thing, not a waste of time.  More data is better.

DC was 79 points more Democratic than the nation in 2008, so this projects to a 1% Obama lead nationwide.  Seems about right to me. Smiley

If you guessed we'd get a poll of DC before we got South Carolina, congratulations... you called it
