Hurricane Sandy And Polling

October 30, 2012

Comments

Gallup did not run its national tracking poll last night due to Hurricane Sandy:

Gallup has suspended polling for its daily tracking as of Monday night and will reassess on a day-to-day basis. The ultimate effect on the overall picture of polling between now and this weekend, including election polling, will depend on what happens as a result of the storm, about which we will have a better understanding of on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.

IBD/TIPP followed suit. It’s unclear what others, such as The Washington Post, will do, but Rasmussen evidently did poll last night since its morning release has Romney ahead of Obama by two points.

Do you read your own damned comments, Doug.

You have a large community here. We have people we need to account for. Write a post inviting people to report in.

I am being swiftly driven insane by people who don’t have a lick of common sense.
