Confirms that the Illinois governors race is close. Likely released to quell the Quinn momentum in the non-partisan polls. Quinn has the advantage in the real world at this point.

Nah. That one Arkanasas internal had Ross up FOUR, when most polls have Ross pretty much down double digits. That's not nearly as bad as this one, which is, granted, pretty awful.

As sad as Illinois's dumbness is, Quinn is probably going to win.

Well the Arkansas one may be more egregious, but they're both 0% believable.

Yep, such dumbasses! Voting for the choice that most aligns with them politically. Who does that?

Heh, turned out to be right on the money. Probably an accident rather than unusually good polling though.

For the most part, Republican internals nailed it this year.

Indeed.  Just as Dem internals nailed in 2012.  Hopefully we won't have too many blue avatars attempting a stupid extrapolation of 2014 polling error like the Dems did [to an extent] this cycle with 2012 polling error.

Hopefully this election illustrates the principle learned in any basic stats class:  don't extrapolate from a limited sample size.

Unfortunately, 90% of the analysis in this forum is like that.

What sample size are you using to extrapolate that 90% figure?
