How so ?

Their results are not much different than PPP polls that were done at the same time they did their polls ...

1) They use decimals.
2) Now PPP is saying that Michaud leads by 8, a 6 points increase compared with the last time. So now, it's impossible Lepage is leading right now.

Using decimals does not make a poll wrong: That's like saying a car is worse just because it has a seat warming system, which another car has not.

And: Nothing is impossible. But I'd like to see other polls as well.

No, the issue with the inclusion of decimals is that it indicates that the pollster doesn't understand significant figures.
