Welcome!

6:53 AM: I'm bumping this one back to the top for our new visitors from PoliPundit. Thanks especially to Jayson for the mention.

**********

Welcome, visitors from Daly Thoughts. I've gotten over 175 hits in the last half-hour from Gerry's mention.

Please look around, and hopefully you'll like what you see. I keep track of polls of the competitive Senate races, and summarize each day's new polls every evening or so. Past polls and posts are compiled into Race Pages. The pages for the competitive races are listed at right. Also, an Overview page lists each race, the latest poll, and its current designation in a table format.

A quick note about the designations:

Safe or Easy means a 20-point or more lead. Some races with incumbents have never even been polled, and many are no contest at all. These are also Safe. This close to the election, many races with 13-point, 15-point, or larger leads are designated Safe as well, as it would be mighty hard for a candidate to overcome that large of a margin in less than a week.

Probably signifies a 10-point or larger lead.
Likely signifies a 5-point or larger lead.
Slight or Leaning means the race is essientially a toss-up, but leaning slightly towards one candidate or another, using by just a few points and always within the margin of error.
And, of course, Toss-up means the race is a complete Toss-up. Usually recent polls will be split between both candidates.

Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you'll stick around. I always appreciate feedback, either in the form of comments on a post or e-mail (to which I always try to reply).

Cheers,
K1

9:04 PM Update: We've broken a thousand hits for the day! I'm amazed! Thanks loads to Gerry and all our new visitors. Please stick around and always, ALWAYS leave feedback, or I'll be forced to harm this kitten...

The so called Indpt Pollster in AK.

Exit polls were crap, and now we know some pollsters
numbers were crap too.

6:30 p.m. - At the Anchorage Hotel downtown, a small
group nursed wine glasses and beer bottles, munching
on smoked salmon and turkey wraps.

------>This was pollster Ivan Moore's party. His polls have consistently called Tony ahead.

------->In the previous week, though, the Republicans
began touting their own poll, which said just the
opposite. Maybe we should have paid attention. Those
in this room were virulently anti-Bush and pro-Tony
Knowles.

------> Ivan & Co. watched with stricken faces as the
country bled on the TV screen. They made
moving-to-Mexico-noises and slapped their foreheads.


---------> Moore proclaimed loudly that anybody who
voted for Bush didn't have a conscience.
