Polls that skew older also skew Republican and that is the case with this poll.

but I don't think there is a deliberate bias within this poll, party ID is just odd some times.




Lol.


Colorado has slightly too many Republicans but Romney would be leading anyway.

38% of Colorado poll respondents are over 65...this is a definite outlier. Also, no way Romney is +5 in Colorado when Scott Rasshack puts it tied...Obama +3 or so.

Try again with actual math. Reducing the number of Republicans by 3-4% won't shift the poll by 8 points.

Math on a outlier poll is useless.

Some of you guys need to stop fantasizing CO being a very liberal state, it's annoying. We are clearly a competitive state, and will always be like that.

LOL...obvious hack is obvious
