45% Democrat
28% Republican
24% Independent in this poll

In 2004 it was 36% GOP, 34% Dem, 30% Indy.

What was the makeup in 2006? Why does it appear that SUSA is weighing Democrats so heavily in their polls recently?

SUSA doesn't weight.

There wasn't an exit poll in Iowa in 2006.

Well, in their Iowa and Ohio polls, they showed 45% and 52% of the voters to be Democrats. That seems like it's a little high, even though the GOP is hurting. IF most states have 45-50% of the electorate identifying as Democrats, then McCain has no chance.
