The poll oversampled Rats by 4.

This is odd.

“The key finding on this poll may be how the early voters are breaking out. 19% of people say they’ve already cast their ballots and they report having voted for Obama by a 76-24 margin. Romney has a 51-45 advantage with those who haven’t voted yet, but the numbers make it clear that he already has a lot of ground to make up in the final three weeks before the election.”

No way the electorate will be 40% D on election day.

The poll oversampled Rats by 4...and undersampled Independents by a good four or five points probably, and with I's going five points for Romney, this would about make the difference......

This 74-24 margin is hard to reconcile with reports of the number of absentee ballots ordered based on party affiliation which had Democrats only having a marginal number of them ordered to Republicans. Seems their sampling methods must be badly skewed.
