This One’s Worse Than the Last One

Political identification data from latest skewed AP poll.

Do you smell that, Save Jerseyans?

It’s the nauseating stench of more cooked national polls in President Obama’s favor!

On Wednesday, I examined the latest Ipsos/Reuters poll that significantly oversampled Democrats; in fact, the Ipsos folks inexplicably assumed Democrats would out-vote Republicans in 2012 by a larger percentage than what we witnessed in 2008.

An unlikely occurrence no matter how Obama does!

Yesterday we also got a brand new Associated Press poll that assumes Democrats will compromise a full 49% of the electorate in 2012 compared to only 37% for the GOP. A 12-point gap! Again, in 2008, the electorate was 39% DEM to 32% GOP according to available exit polling. Interestingly, this poll from the notoriously-biased AP surfaced just as Mitt Romney was poised to overtake the President in RCP’s rolling average of national polling.

Coincidence? You be the judge! Sure looks fishy to me…
