This is another redundant poll. Why wouldn't they poll in states that results are closer? New Mexico and Colorado havnt had polls in almost 2 weeks for example...

Should we be expecting a daily Massachusetts poll to accompany the national daily tracking polls? I'm sure the state is feeling flattered.

It would actually be a nice post for Mark to address why we've seen (relatively) so many CA, NY, and MA polls.

Rasmussen has been polling Massachusetts monthly since March.
Note also that there are other poll questions. And this is the first time that Kerry has a Democratic primary opponent since he first took office.
No surprises, but someone needs to measure the political winds.

Oh thank god. Finally a poll in MA. I was getting worried I could not imagine what might be happening there. Now only if we can get another NY, MS, AZ and IL poll or two.
I'll wait for the OH, NM & CO for October or so - its not like they will count for much.
