Over-Reading
I love Public Policy Polling – and the almost-daily poll fix they give me. But I take issue with a recent analysis.
PPP found that Senator Kay Hagan’s approval rating was up – to 39 percent, with 38 percent disapproval.
According to the N&O:
“Pollster Tom Jensen attributed Hagan’s improved standing to some more conservative positions she has taken, such as opposition to the Dream Act….”
I seriously doubt enough voters even knew about her position on the Dream Act to move her numbers.
We political junkies wrongly assume that voters follow day-to-day events as obsessively as do.
