Reply #38: WTF? . Why does gfk say that Obama was ahead by 10 points, then lop it down to 1??? [View All]

"The AP-GfK survey included interviews with a large sample of adults including 800 deemed likely to vote. Among all 1,101 adults interviewed, the survey showed Obama ahead 47 percent to 37 percent. He was up by five points among registered voters."

"AMONG ALL 1,101 adults interviewed, the survey showed OBAMA AHEAD 47% to 37% for McCAIN!!!!!!

He was up 5 points among REGISTERED voters"

SOOOO... what we have here is AP being very very very unethical and dishonest, along with their little PR firm. THEY decide who is "likely" based upon what? I mean. .it's not like someone says, "yah, I'm for Obama, but I'm not gonna vote" What they do is throw OUT the responses of people they deem "not likely to vote" based upon some statistical info from the past.

Someone needs to call AP out on this BULLSHIT.

Now, I'm mad.
