CNN Poll oversampled Republicans by 8 pts- vp debate
« on: October 11, 2012, 09:56:43 PM »
This poll seems to be "THE ONE" that matters to everyone.   An interestping point here

SPECIAL NOTE OF CAUTION #2: The sample of debate-watchers in this poll were 31% Democratic and 33% Republican. That indicates that the sample of debate watchers is about eight points more Republican than an average CNN poll of all Americans, so the respondents were more Republican than the general public.

Interesting. Maybe more Republicans watch because Biden tends to be a fucking trainwreck?

it could be more dems are watching the football game, the baseball game, etc. 

politics usually isn't a young man's game lol... the older we get, the more we follow this stuff.  I'd bet a higher % of people who are conservative watch this, and more people are watching garbage sitcoms or playing Halo.

HUH!! If it's 31% Democrats and 33% Republicans, from where does this "eight points" oversampling come, other than the fact that fewer republicans watch CNN overall (a mere 18% of viewers according to a 2009 Pew poll)?

They didn't oversample Republicans by eight...they oversampled them by eight more than usual.  In other words...they usually oversample Dems by six points.

You'll have to forgive 240 as he only has an MBA and they don't bother teaching maths anymore.
