The variation from poll to poll in the numbers of undecided/dts/other is fascinating - 22% in Ebony/Jet, 12% in Zogby, 36% in Clemson University...
I realized when I checked the SC Dem chart that there isn't a column for "don't know / other." I know the number is there implicitly, but I think it would be awfully nice to have the figure in a column so one could easily visually track the variation. This is primarily because I am lazy. Or maybe I'm just not looking in the right place?
Maybe undecided /dts /other could also get its own line in the sensitivity charts, like Old Blue and Ready Red - it could be "Elusive Ecru" or something.
