Ummm...Another Gallup Surge!!

[SunsetDreams]

Never bet money on swing-polls because they are about as fickle as Romney's economic plans. With that said, there was a surge today on Gallup:

Gallup 7-point swing in overnight poll from 47/46 to 51/43

Head-to-head: from 47/47 to Obama 48/46

I guess the 47% comment is finally being factored in.

That's a heck of a surge overnight...


(I would just like to make clear that this is for the President Approval/Disapproval)

There was a swing in the "head-to-head" Presidential election as well.

3. "7-point swing" is in *favorable* ratings for Obama, not the presidential election.

The original post was a bit confusing.

51% approve of Obama(+4) 43% don't (-3).

Today the pres. election poll is 48% Obama (+1), 46 Romney (-1).

4. All depends on which Gallop office

is doing the phone bank. It's all about the formulation of the questions and the verbal nuances used by the telemarketer. Gallop has a history of laziness when it comes to phone lists. Been there done that once,bias,you betcha. You are told in advance what you team goals should look like. Typical part-time job,no bennys,stuck in some crappy cramped often temperay rented dump. You need rent or food money,you suck it up and get it done. These are the 1%er new jobs,yea right.
