This is a statement from Gallup Editor-in-Chief Frank Newport regarding Gallup polling and Gallup Daily tracking during Hurricane Sandy:
Gallup has suspended polling for its daily tracking as of Monday night and will reassess on a day-to-day basis. The ultimate effect on the overall picture of polling between now and this weekend, including election polling, will depend on what happens as a result of the storm, about which we will have a better understanding of on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
Look for future updates here.

IBD poll suspended as well.
Something that makes absolutely no sense though is they didn’t release today’s number (which would be data already collected from yesterday and prior). Why not release a poll with data already collected? What would keep them from having collected yesterday? Nothing stopped Rasmussen or Gallup.
Is anyone tired of the polls?
I am.
1 - Only Gallup's poll is suspending. Other polls, like Rasmussen, will continue.
2 - HELL F---ING NO!!!
It takes a while to build a fire hot enough to soften the numbers for a proper cooking. The numbers need to be well done b4 Zer0’s re-election.
