No, NYT and CBS pay Quinnipiac to conduct the polls for them. But that doesn't change the quality. Quinnipiac has been a very good pollster in recent years, so don't shoot the messenger. The problem is Mitt Romney after all, not the pollster.

Oh yeah, as long as it's Quinnipiac doing the polls, that's good. These are pretty good numbers then, though the Florida lead is kind of hard to believe.

Huh, actually looking at the polls, it seems like Obama has been leading in all the recent polls of Florida, except for Purple Strategies which is looking like a big outlier.

Changes since last Quinnipiac polls:

FL: Obama +2
OH: Obama -3
PA: Obama +5

The rejection of polls you dont like and embracing of those you do thing is becoming an embarrassing cliche.



Yeah, if this is all this forum is going to be for the next three months then let's just close  it now. It's really tiring to come to this forum to see new polls and see nothing but complaints that the poll is trash because it doesn't conform to their notions of how the sample should be weighed.
