10. it's ok to cite the poll, but give a warning
such as we do with washingtontimes, wall street journal, fox news etc. and didn't you say he uses machines to do polling ? so if nobody picks up it makes the results less accurate. in scientific polling i believe they call back if someone doesn't pick up at first. i do remember him during 2000 though. and how all the right wingers would always bring up rasmussen. someone told me then his polling methods were not very reliable. i believe zogby got it right though since he had it close but on his last poll he had al gore ahead of bush though still close and this was how it turned out.
