I'll let you read the full gory details for yourself, but basically it seems ARG is a 16 person operation in New Hampshire run by a former John Anderson supporter who tried to funnel money from his dead father's estate that was meant to care for his mother's nursing home care until his sister cried foul. He also says that anyone who doesn't have a landline doesn't vote and that he has difficulty getting people to answer his polls when he calls. No, I'm not making this up.

For the record, their 1996 final poll indicated Dole winning by 7 and in 2000 their final poll said Bush would win by 2. Buchanan won by 1 and McCain won by 18 of course.

Anyways, our favorite joke of a pollster is finally revealed:
