Do you think that could have affected Obama's numbers in that Suffolk Poll?


I think it would.

3. Someone pointed out that the poll didn't include those who'd already voted.
It was likely voters. It's pretty normal for undecideds to break even.

5. Probably some
But even if that accounted for 10,000 of the attendees, it's still an impressive crowd.

7. by how much?
.02% of the population was out of the house for a couple of hours during one day of a two day poll.

You think that had a noticeable impact on the poll?

8. A lot less than the total voting population is of voting age and registered democrats
I think that his Portland numbers could have been affected. I dont know by how much, but Id be willing to bet they were.

9. Considering the entire population....
