ND-Pres: Another poll shows Obama lead Hotlist

DFM Research for the North Dakota United Transportation Union. 10/13-14. Adults. MoE 4.4% (No trend lines)

McCain (R) 41
Obama (D) 44

Two quick points -- there's no need for a voter registration screen in North Dakota because the state does not have any voter registration. Anyone over the age of 18 can vote as long as they've lived in their precinct for 30 days. So a poll of "adults" is equivalent to a poll of "registered voters". But that's all it is, there were no "likely voter" screens applied.

We've got a poll in the field right now, so hopefully we can be the third poll in a row showing a neck-and-neck (or better) race in the state.

  - The problem with both polls is, there is a big number of undecideds.  Schulzz   Oct-16-08 02:28 PM   #1 
  - that's probably likely to happen, but Obama is still doing well enough  book_worm   Oct-16-08 02:30 PM   #2 
  - Sure...what the heck... high MOE, high undecideds, whatever... it's just a poll  featherman   Oct-16-08 02:36 PM   #4 
     - Yes, I agree. Bush won ND by 27%, so it's huge that it seems to be in play.  Schulzz   Oct-16-08 02:41 PM   #6 
  - what's that I see??  TheDonkey   Oct-16-08 02:32 PM   #3 
  - I SEE SCARP!  kick-ass-bob   Oct-16-08 02:37 PM   #5 
  - as Fleetwood Mac said...  yodermon   Oct-16-08 02:58 PM   #7 
  - That MOE is way too high.  Drunken Irishman   Oct-16-08 02:59 PM   #8
