CNN poll of polls: O 50, M 44, Undecided 6

[wildflower]

From http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/11/01/cnn-poll-of-polls-race-remains-tight/ (the title says "race remains tight" which I think is just silly):

(snip)

Obama is ahead of McCain by six points in Saturday’s poll of polls. Fifty percent of likely voters nationally support Obama, 44 percent support McCain, and six percent are unsure about their choice for president.

In CNN’s October 31 national poll of polls, Obama had a seven-point lead over McCain – 50 percent compared to 43 percent.

CNN’s latest national general election poll of polls consists of the following six surveys: Fox/Opinion Dynamics (October 28-29), ABC/Washington Post (October 28-31), Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby (October 29-31), Gallup (October 29-31), Diageo/Hotline (October 29-31), and IBD/TIPP (October 27-31).

CNN’s national poll of polls does not have a sampling error.

1. ...or you could just go to RCP

:D

4. Well you've got me there

But I saw this and just had to post it. Less than 3 days to go and an average of 6 points ahead! It's great to be in this position.

I also thought it really weird that their title said "race remains tight." Huh?

8. Not criticizing you, more wondering why CNN duplicates the effort n/t

2. With the Predicted 6% "Bradley" (Diebold) Effect, It IS Tight

7. Predicted by racists, GOPers, and imbecile Dems who believe it

I hope you're none of the above.

There is no Bradley Effect, and never has been.

11. That is Why I Called It the *"Bradley" (Diebold) Effect*

What the MSM calls the "Bradley" effect is really election fraud by the Repiglickins (aka the "Diebold" effect).

I thought that was fairly obvious from my post.

The "Bradley" effect that the MSM touts is just a cover story.

12. There is no Diebold election fraud

Just another myth.

Election rigging is simple: purge voters, put less machines in districts you're going to lose, etc. There is no mystery or Diebold vote flipping. There's just the same old stupid game.

13. They Do Both

14. The Bradley Effect has been proven to be a myth

..by so many experts that I'm not even going to link to them again.

15. Which is why I Have It In Quotes

We know the "Bradley" effect is a myth, but it is a very useful myth to them,
which is why the MSM talks it up. It is useful as a cover for election fraud
(i.e. Diebold, but also accomplished by voter suppression and forcing people
to vote provisionally so their votes can be thrown out).

3. I know McCain and his people would love to think all of those 6 percent will break his way, but it

just won't happen. Obama'll still come out ahead, no matter what.

5. National polls mean absolutely nothing at this point

Only state polls matter. And even the state polls don't mean much, many of those states have already been voting for two weeks. Almost 4 million Floridians have alerady voted in early voting or absentee.

6. Interesting selection of tracking polls...

"Yes" for Zogby and Faux, but "no" for Rasmussen or dKos/R2K, both of which, coincidentally, had Obama stretching his lead yesterday.

9. I didn't realize Fox had a tracking poll. No Rasmussen? Not really a poll of polls, then.

[Prolific]

10. Why is RCP and CNN still counting the Fox Poll?

which only reflects the days 10/28 - 10/29? It's not even a daily tracking poll.
