Don't use Twitter as a source for this.  Wait until the actual poll release is issued.  We want actual numbers, not numbers you just made up.

They tweeted that the sample was 500 likely voters?

I try to change it (the voter count) after it's released. It's not a big deal.

You try, but you don't every time.  Dave wants complete info for the polls, not just "fast" entry.

Gingrich leads early voters 38-29-20 (G-R-S). 52% think Obama is a Muslim, 12% Christian, 36% Unsure. 66% do not believe in evolution. 29% think interracial marriage should be illegal.

I get why some might find it offensive to say things like "joke state" but things like this make it sooooooooooooooo hard not to...

I saw the polls for the Super Tuesday southern states back in 2008. Besides Insider Advantage all the other outfits (including PPP) screwed them pretty badly. I remember they were showing McCain winning comfortably Georgia and Alabama when in reality he lost them to Huckabee.
Can someone explain to me why the Deep South is so difficult to poll?

If their tweet on Saturday saying Frothy was so far back behind the top 2, then Frothy must have done well on Sunday's calls.

There is a big age gap on these questions. For example, on interracial marriage, voters under 45 support it 70-23, while voters over 65 oppose it 43-35. Given that gap, I'm guessing the numbers would be better for voters under 30, if the poll had aggregated them.
In other words, the civil rights movement really did make a difference to how people think, even for conservative whites in Mississippi. It's just that that work isn't quite finished yet.

That's better...but it's still frightening,to say the least,that 23% of voters under 45 think that interracial marriage should be illegal.

That's probably the case in a few other countries too. I certainly know there are many Austrian parents who would Roll Eyes if their daughter would date a black dude or a Muslim dude, let alone marry one of them.

No! That can't be! Not on the englightened continent!

This is clearly limited to the Deep South of the U.S.

Sure.

I guess about 5-15% of the Austrian population (mainly the Nazi wing of the FPÖ).

Those people have a strong pure-blood mentality.
