Nice. Survey over several days and pick the one day with the best results for the R to release.

POS doesn't play that game. Had the survey had maybe 333 likely voters, maybe the campaign would be doing something suspicious here. But no campaign -- especially a challenger's House campaign -- is going to run a multi-day poll with 2,000 or 3,000 respondents.

According to the link, Altschuler has paid a lot of money for polling but this is the only one he's released.

$16,000 isn't what I'd consider a "lot of money" for polling.

What about $54,000? $16,000 was the subset for April only.

Stu Rothenberg turned his nose up at Altschuler's POS poll.
