Gallup internals received by Steve Soto; no surprise--another GOP bias
Steve Soto at The Left Coaster always gets the Gallup internals. He posted this:

"So how is it possible that Kerry can do so well by Gallup’s own account in the three debates and lose ground?

Since we are talking about Gallup here, you already know the answer.

According to the internals I just received from Gallup, they over sampled once again for Republicans in their latest poll. The LV sample they used for that hard-to-believe 8% lead for Bush sure enough had 3% more Republicans than Democrats, and the RV sample had 2% more Republicans than Democrats."

A seven percent swing from what the Democratic/GOP percentages were in 2000.

Reweighting the polls gives Kerry a 2 percent lead among LVs.

2. Thanks for confirming
We had speculated all day but this is numeric proof.

I also appreciate the link, a site I was not familiar with.
