MI PrimR: Public Policy Polling: Santorum leads by 1 in combined sample, 5 today

I changed the database entry to today's numbers to avoid double counting.

No... we treat these as 2 different one-day polls.  Their samples are big enough to do it that way, and that's how we've been doing it so far.

Yeah, that's what I changed it to.

You shouldn't be changing anything.  Tonight's poll should be entered as a new poll.

And there's no rush.  Next time just wait until they release the story - don't use a Twitter status as a source.  The questions and everything should be in there - this just makes it harder, because we have to go back and edit it.

Ok, I'm not explaining myself clearly. I initially entered the combined poll, but changed that entry to just the one day sample. I didn't touch yesterday's.

Ahh ok - my misunderstanding.  We're all good now!
