While Hostettler is in trouble, this poll is worthless. From Crosstabs:

But still I don’t really have a problem with the survey showing Hostettler down as I expect to see that. The professor who supervised the study blabs on about using a stratified random sample and how the survey is geographically proportionate with the counties in the district yada yada yada. Then a couple paragraphs down I come across this nugget referring to the complete sample of n=603 respondents.

Of that 603, 63.5 percent are women and 36.5 percent are men.

That’s unprecedented. Two-thirds of the voters in the district are women??? Is this a survey of Indiana’s 8th CD or that island from the James Bond movie Octopussy?

Thanks for the info. That certainly does seem to invalidate this one. Thanks again!
