I'm not going to do anything with this until Joe and I get moderating control back over the Senatorial election polls, but I'm going to request that House polls be put into Senatorial election polls board unless Dave creates a House election polls child board (which I may ask for).

Someone seems to have lots of money at firedoglake to commission these polls on a weekly basis.

Not that I have anything against it, they should continue to do so until November ... Smiley

Altschuler needs to increase his support among women voters and get the other 10% of Republicans who disapprove of Obama to support him(74% of Repubs disapprove of Obama but only 66% of Repubs support Altschuler. Adding more points among Independents wouldn't hurt either.

Looks like an absurdly tight voter screen. They only have 1% of the electorate as 18-34.

I live in this district. That 1% sample is a little ridiculous, but it's definitely not pushing 6 or 7%.

Just from what I've seen/heard - Bishop will lose. I don't know how he's gotten away with such a liberal voting record in a swing district, aside from being generally well-liked in the Town of Southampton.

Crappy candidate in 2004, and two waves in 2006 and 2008.

To be honest, he's had a crappy opponent all three times. And the old people genuinely like him a lot. He could still probably pull it off with a solid campaign, but I really think health care has killed him. (He was one of the first congressmen, if not the first, bum-rushed at a town hall.)

Well even if he had good opponents in 2006 or 2008, he would have still won reelection because of the wave.

SUSA's last two polls for FDL also has ridiculously tight voter screen: 5% in AR-02 and 3% in OH-01.

SUSA's internals are always screwy, but their toplines tend to be solid.

I actually expected Bishop to be trailing.

I'm not sure what FDL is doing here in terms of financial gain.  These polls are expensive and they don't have Kos's resources.  And if I were an activist these results would make me not want to activate
