About this Survey -
Survey Sponsor: American Research Group, Inc.
The American Research Group has been conducting surveys of voters since 1985.
Sample Size: 600 completed telephone interviews among a random sample
of likely Republican primary voters living in Florida (578 Republicans and 22 independent
(no party and new voters)
voters).
Sample
Dates: January 25-26, 2008
Margin of Error: ± 4 percentage points, 95% of the time, on questions where opinion is evenly split.
Question Wording:
If the 2008 Republican presidential preference
primary were being held today between (names rotated)
Rudy Giuliani, Mike
Huckabee, Alan Keyes, John McCain, Ron Paul, and Mitt Romney, for whom would you vote?
Would you say that you definitely plan to vote
in the 2008 Republican presidential primary, that you might
vote in the 2008 Republican presidential primary, or that you will probably not vote in the 2008 Republican
presidential primary?
"ARRRRRRRG! Florida!"
Looking at that chart, it sure seems like Mitt picked up the percentage that was going for Fred Thompson. ... Yes we Can. Yes we can. we Can.
As shown on the table below, ARG's reputation as not very good shows up on the data as well.
Independents can vote in Florida?
Nope.
What a nailbiter! Will McCain’s desperate “timetable” attack backfire on him and move the momentum to Mitt?
John McCain would still SIGN THE BILL to grant amnesty to the crimnals.
I thought that FL had a closed primary. ITTC, why are they polling Independents?
Nope. The confusing inclusion of Indies (and even Dems) in these polls appears to be because some people identify themselves as "independent" to the pollster, even when they are registered as Republican.
We'll see on this Intrade graph whether ARG's 6 pt bump for Romney affects the his Florida prospects. This poll was released about 3:30 AM GMT.
I thought Rasmussen would be higher on the list.
ARG is of course, rubbish. But, it appears that there is a consensus now showing a Romney surge.
Nor would I have thought that much-maligned Zogby was doing so well, especially after the Michigan debacle. You got to give Zog credit though, for going into just about every State.
Looks like Fred voters are going for Mitt!
I’m voting for Mitt!!!
If you have a MItt ping list, could you add me to it?
I want Mitt to win.
TIA
Keyes? WTF?
If ARG has Mitt only up 1, he’s likely up 5.
