New Poll: Poll shows tie race in Michigan: Obama's base more excited

3. I have never heard of this polling firm

Plus, polls where there is a relatively low tally for both sides (40%) are bad polls, because "leaners" are not calculated. Thus, you get a base 40/40 poll that you would get in 40 of 50 states if this methodology were used.

For the record, this style of polling is the same way Obama received surprisingly good polling numbers out of Arizona a few months ago. Both Romney and Obama scored around 40%. This too was a bad poll for the same reason.


Obama is ahead in Michigan.
Romney is ahead in Arizona.

This is true despite any ridiculous anonymous pollster that gives a a base election 40/40 result to the contrary.
