Anyone have the State by State numbers for Zogby's South goes Bush poll?

Poll: South is sticking by Bush (Zogby)
Iraq setbacks notwithstanding, optimism rules; war on terror gets even higher score.

By DREW JUBERA
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 05/19/04


Weeks after his nephew was killed while traveling in an Army convoy in Iraq, Ray Hartman prays for President Bush in handling the war. Despite his family's loss, Hartman believes Bush is doing the right thing.<snip>

Almost 50 percent of people polled in 11 Southern states approve of the president's handling of Iraq, while 58 percent of Americans disapprove, according to a recent USA Today national poll. Sixty-four percent of Southerners approve of his handling of the broader war on terrorism, compared with a little more than half in the national poll.

The approval numbers reflect Southerners' voting intentions. If the election were held today, according to the AJC poll, Bush would beat Democratic Sen. John Kerry by 15 points — 52 percent to 37 percent .

By contrast, the USA Today poll has Bush ahead by 1 percentage point, and a national Zogby poll taken last week has Kerry leading by 5 points.<snip>

"When George W. says something, that's it — it's going to happen, there's no ambiguity there," said Dan Clary, 30, a Scottsboro, Ala., field engineer. "I think Southerners like that."<snip>

5. Exactly
Edwards can bring NC and possibly TN.

I don't see Clark doing as well in the South.

Of course, there is Max Cleland. He might also be a good one to bring Southern votes.

3. According to Zogby's most recent national poll

Bush's lead in the South is just 4 points. See http://www.zogby.com/news/ReadNews.dbm?ID=826

Is this a different poll?

4. New poll is one week later.
Edited on Thu May-20-04 12:05 PM by papau
The "old" poll of 985 likely voters was conducted Monday through Thursday (May 10-13, 2004

versus

likely voters conducted by Zogby International on Monday (17th) and Tuesday (18th)



And has only 500 responces and those are from east of the Mississsippi - I am not sure what States were in Zogby's "old poll"
