Cool! I just got polled by ABC/Washington Post!
They asked who I would vote for, approval/disapproval of bush, about the draft, flu vaccine, likelihood of voting, etc. Most questions had several answers. Needless to say, I gave the strongest pro-Dem answer for every question. The poll will appear in a couple of days.

Since they only poll about 1,000 people, one person represents 130,000 registered voters (there was approximately 130 million registered voters in 2000). That's enough to speak for all of DU and the freepers too.

4. That was quick thinking, but the great thing about your answers....
...are they were totally honest. Problem is that the polling companies weight the democrats in the polls less than the republicans for some strange reason. Does anyone know how have the registration data for 2004 compares with that of 2000? If new registrations are up by 20% how does that impact these weighting factors used in the polls?
