This poll is probably an outlier. So is MSNBC's most likely. boxman15 Oct 2012 #11

Are all the polls outliers? cthulu2016 Oct 2012 #13

No. But it's very hard for me to believe either candidate is up by 4-5 points right now. boxman15 Oct 2012 #19

Hmmm. This poll is based on REGISTERED voters, not LIKELY voters... OldDem2012 Oct 2012 #18

Right, HP says 1046 of 1201 interviews taken Thursday-Saturday. Most probably from Thurs and Friday winstars Oct 2012 #60

Here's an explanation: The fraction of independents went from 34% up to 41% between polls. reformist2 Oct 2012 #25

Pew has always been an extremely reactive poll. It was pleasant, but not very realistic, with Obama Mass Oct 2012 #27

I'm Thinking It Caught All Of The Bounce From The Debate For RobMe DemocratSinceBirth Oct 2012 #34

This poll was to be expected... tallahasseedem Oct 2012 #29

Let's hope the bounce is transient. nt. andym Oct 2012 #38
