Harris-Zogby-Fox-CBS(notCBS/NYT)-Keep an eye on these four, especially Zogby and Harris who nailed the race in 1996 and 2000.


The other 39 missed it from 2-8%.

1. Zogby also nailed 1996
I have the most faith in him.

2. And more Dems will show up this year to vote.
They're misunderestimating democratic turnout.

3. I'm a person who allows dissent (polls that show us behind), and still...

...I think we're gonna win this one. I posted a theory yesterday about how we may even see us leap by more than the margin of undecideds on election day because I think it's more about turnout than convincing undecideds, and I actually think we will in some states.

BUT STILL WORK LIKE CRAZY! Think of it as it will feel good to have done so if we have a good chance of winning!

4. so what do Zogby & Harris predict?
Edited on Sun Oct-31-04 07:07 PM by klyon
I have seen so many I can't keep up.
Does Zogby listen to his own polls? He has personally called it for both.
