Survey USA (biased): SCHWARZENEGGER SOARS, FOR NOW
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 03:18 PM by goobergunch
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a poll of certain voters. Therefore, this poll skews towards the Repukes. Also, I've heard that they push-poll, skewing even more. Keep this in mind while reading.

Conducted: 9/28 + 9/29 + 9/30.
709 "certain" voters.
Margin of Error 3.7%

Should Davis be recalled? 61% YES, 39% NO.

SCHWARZENEGGER (R) 45%
BUSTAMANTE (D) 28%
MCCLINTOCK (R) 16%
HUFFINGTON (I) 3%

1. I saw a post with Survey USA results yesterday - they use push polling?
See this thread:

I suggest that survey usa results be banned from DU for now. They do not appear to be objective pollers.

2. I believe in posting as much information as possible
However, I did add more to the disclaimer at the top. I'll reiterate: do not trust this poll.

3. Thanks, goobergunch. That's more informative and honest now.
It's especially important that conservative, biased articles and polls be pointed out as such in their thread headline, in my view.
