News10/SurveyUSA ^ | Monday, October 21, 2002 | News10/SurveyUSA

With just a little over two weeks left before the November 5 election, Gov. Gray Davis is leading Republican challenger Bill Simon by 11 points in the latest News10/SurveyUSA poll.

The survey polled 700 likely voters throughout California over the weekend. They were asked who they would vote for if the election were held today. Davis came in first with 47 percent, Simon received 36 percent, Green Party candidate Peter Camejo was at 9 percent, Libertarian candidate Gary Copeland received 4 percent, and 4 percent were undecided. The margin of error in the poll is plus or minus 3.8 percent.

Compared to a week ago, Davis has slipped by one point. Simon is up by three points.

According to the poll, 51 percent of women support Davis compared with 34 percent for Simon. Davis has the support of 43 percent of men compared with 39 percent for Simon.

This Survey USA poll is a joke. Just how many Republicans do you think hang around during the weekend answering automated telephone polls?

I'll look to the Field Poll as the "last word" on the status of this race. Field an excellent track record in CA.

Lots of new polls recently! Wonder how much the numbers will change after the Nathanson letters are released, if they are. (hopefully soon, since about a quarter of CA voters vote by absentee ballot, and those who mail their ballots into their county elections office will vote several days before November 5th.)

When a rat brings in survey usa it means that there might be some trouble in the barn. This bunch are rat house pollsters and their report is about as reliable as on written by mc ash hole himself.

California Democrat Party Handbook

2. Creative Use of Absentee Ballots

If you have a Democrat elections commissioner, the neat thing about absentee ballots is you can fill them out and count them AFTER the polls close. Always keep a big stack of ABRC's (Absentee Ballots Ready to Count) nearby in case you need them.
