The link to the page that the poll is supposed to be on leads to an error message. Let's not start getting into making up polls, that's just pathetic.

The poll is real, even if the link doesn't work.

Looks like the Republican Gubernatorial New England Wave is building... Sad

Trash it. But I can't wait to see all the blue avatars who complained about Dem hackery in the Alaska thread praise this one.

While I don't yet see the poll on the Portland Press Herald's website, I doubt an MSNBC host is making up polls.  His reputation is at stake.

In all seriousness, this poll is an outlier and I'm not taking it seriously at this point.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2010/governor/me/maine_governor_lepage_vs_mitchell_vs_cutler-1231.html

ME-Gov was just about the biggest polling miss of 2010; the final RCP average had LePage doing 11 points better than his actual showing, so Dems can still be cautiously optimistic here.

To be fair, Pan Atlantic was the closest, and their most recent polls have shown LePage ahead.

Interesting note: The PPP showing them tied was actually conducted AFTER this one, further confirming this is an outlier (as if that wasn't already obvious).

I'd be fine with letting this poll be true if the republicans are okay with letting that alaska poll be true.

Is this poll partisan affiliated? Is there an established polling consensus for this race that this poll is substantially deviating from?

No, unlike the Alaska poll, this poll is not partisanly affiliated with the candidate they are showing losing by ten points.

Yes.

Yes.

Plus this is conducted by UNH, a noted terrible pollster that has wild swings for seemingly no reason.

In all seriousness, about as much of an outlier as that Michaud +6 poll
