33% Obama 44% Romney 35% Obama NBP released Friday the results of a poll it conducted between Feb. 15-17. Officials say they selected registered South Dakota voters are random.

Obviously they really didn't push people at all.

Split the difference 50-50 (which may be charitable for Republicans), and President Obama loses the state 55-45, which is little worse than he did in SD in 2008. I doubt that the President will make many appearances in South Dakota because it will have only one nationally-important contested race (the at-large House seat -- and that is now tied).

Title: Re: SD-Nielsen Brothers Polling: Republicans ahead of Obama in South Dakota Post by: Alcon on March 13, 2012, 05:00:59 PM Why the high undecided rate? Most pollsters ask undecided voters which way they're leaning, and include this in the top-line; it's called pushing. A lot of crappy pollsters, especially university ones, do not, and end up with absurdly high undecided rates.
