What was the Party ID on the latest Gallup poll?
Just curious to see if the Kerry bounce was due in part to a more realistic sample.

Of course, what's important is that the Chimperor is going down, down, down.

1. i want to know this too. with all the gallup threads
i havent been able to find the breakdown of party. i did read that gallup is random so it may explain their swing.

i wish we could just have polls, evenly divided among party affiliation. ohyeah, i would like truthful news reporting too while were at it. just the facts about all events and candidates.

as a start.

2. Here they are:

<snip>
Poll of September 13-15
Reflected Bush Winning by 55%-42%

GOP: 40%
Dem: 33%
Ind: 28%

Poll of September 24-26
Reflected Bush Winning by 52%-44%

GOP: 43%
Dem: 31%
Ind: 25%

Poll of October 1-3
Reflected Dead Heat 49%-49%
772 Likely Voters

GOP: 35%
Dem: 39%
Ind: 26%

Folks, for Gallup’s likely voter methodology to be accurate you would have to accept that there was a 16% swing in party self-identification in one week, with 8% fewer likely voters self-identifying as Republicans and 8% more self-identifying as Democrats.

Registered Voter Samples

Poll of September 13-15
Reflected Bush Winning by 52%-44%

GOP: 38%
Dem: 33%
Ind: 28%

Poll of September 24-26

GOP: 40%
Dem: 31%
Ind: 28%

Poll of October 1-3

934 Registered Voters

GOP: 36%
Dem: 38%
Ind: 26%
