Considering Mitchell is an R pollster, Schauer is in good shape.
Why is it that R Pollster = inaccurate result all the time? Are there any republican polls we can trust?
Because it has a history of inflating R numbers (unlike PPP's nonpartisan polls).
Many R pollsters do, but there are also times where they get it right. I don't think this poll is terribly inaccurate, if at all. Its very similar to the other polls we've seen. I just don't like assuming republicans are doing better than they should in the poll just because the pollster happens to be R.
Mitchell's final poll results for both the 2012
Presidential and
Senate races in Michigan were Republican-friendly.
Presidential...Mitchell: Obama by 5; Actual: Obama by 9
Senate...Mitchell: Stabenow by 14; Actual: Stabenow by 21
