I was polled by Rasmussen tonight on Blumenthal entering the CT Senate race
I am a CT resident so...
I wonder if they will even count me in their data as I answered everything in the most liberal way possible. Any bets?

Knowing you did the right thing....Rasmussen picks and chooses so I've read...

4. They will, unless it was a "push poll"
If it was a real poll, you'll get counted.

5. Interestingly, Rasmussen usually does not poll Democrats at 0%.
So if you indicated that you vote in every election, and that you intend to vote in November, I would say yes, I'm sure you will be included in the sample of the poll that will most likely show Blumenthal with a big lead.

Demagoguery against pollsters whose results you don't like is a tradition older than Scott Rasmussen. I could care less about his issues polling, but his election polling sets the bar for the industry in terms of consistent accuracy.
