3. The poll is garbage… did you see the cross-tabs?
Edited on Tue May-03-11 12:50 AM by aaaaaa5a
In the poll the racial mixup was

82% white
3% black
6% hispanic
10% asian

There were so few blacks in the survey, the sample wasn't large enough to break down how they voted. In the same survey, 54% of whites approved of the President. So did 60% of asians. But only 43% of hispanics?

Just for the record, to show you off their sample was….

In the 2008 Presidential election, on election day the racial mixup was

74% white
13% black
9% hispanic
4% asian

In fact given the population sample, the Presidents poll number is actually very good.
