PrimeBuzz reported the new Survey USA poll yesterday afternoon which says that Rep. Jerry Moran is doing better than his GOP counterpart Rep. Todd Tiahrt. Everybody gets all excited… but Survey USA really has to be taken with a grain of salt.
And here’s why
“1,500 Kansas adults 10/02/09 through 10/04/09. Of them, 1,302 were registered to vote. Of the registered voters, 475 were determined by SurveyUSA to be likely voters in the August 2010 Republican Primary.”
Only 475 out of the 1302 are likely voters. I love voters… but we’re talking about a GOP primary here….
Secondly, the poll spliced out GOP registrants as well as “unaffiliated voters.” Well… the GOP primary is a closed primary, only the Democratic Party allows unaffiliated voters to vote.
And even if none of that mattered 30% are still undecided. In the end I think this poll is a big fat waste of money that tells us pretty much nothing.
