SUSA about to release Clinton/McCain & Obama/McCain GE polls for all 50 states

[Alcon]

North Dakota?

Well, cool anyway.

[Alcon]

This is exciting but do we not get percentages? 

When the polls are released later today, yes.

The interviews were "just completd," by the way, so we know they're all new polls.

[Alcon]

Eh - we'll see.  North Dakota is less anti-establishment than either South Dakota or Montana, and more Republican.  I'll want to see the polls out of those two states.  Idaho and Wyoming, too.  Even parts of Nebraska; maybe Obama will "win" a CD there, not that the poll would show this*.  Should be a fun afternoon.

But North Dakota is not voting Democratic in the General unless the Dem candidate is named Bartlett and is fictional.

* - Edit: ...or maybe it will.  That was sure a weird coincidence.

But the West loves Obama!

Seriously, I think these polls are sort of correct in the tendencies they show. But SUSA tends to blow up a couple of polls pretty badly when they do this. In the Obama v McCain match-up I'd say Ohio, North Dakota and New Jersey look completely unbelievable. I don't buy Virginia either. In Clinton v McCain the swing seem a little too large (McCain winning New Hampshire and Washington, Clinton winning West Virginia and Florida) but the trend is correct. Apart from Michigan, lol. Michigan going GOP when Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida don't? Yeah, right.

All in all, these look pretty standard for polls done before a candidate is even finalized.

If SUSA's web site actually worked I'd enter them.  I hope they have similar methodologies.

[Alcon]

All entered.

[Alcon]

All entered.

I think you reversed the numbers in Kansas.

Thanks.  I'll be happy if that's the only error I made.

(Other than entering them half as 2/2 and having to go back... )
