scanned through it and found nothing...this is troubling:
“Obama, however, could have a crucial edge: the support of independent voters, who often decide elections in swing-state Florida. Independents back the president by 11 percentage points more than Romney. Thats a six-point shift since the last Mason-Dixon poll in July.”
then again
“The survey was taken just as Romney suffered the fallout of a leaked hidden video of the candidate making disparaging remarks about the 47 percent of taxpayers who pay no federal income tax.”
If the same proportion of Republicans, Democrats and independents cast ballots in 2012 compared to 2008 a high watermark for Democrats Romney could have the edge on Election Day, the poll indicates.
...I am wondering if there was a typo? Seems to imply the poll was assuming a larger turn out for Democrats than they had in 2008? But then how can Obama be up 11 percent in poll among Independents and still only win by 1 overall if this is so? Incomplete data...and the data provided seems not to fit together.
