It's a purely hypothetical scenario that harms no one, and as the table notes, is mathematically sound. Quite simply, all other findings remaining the same, HAD PPP found an electorate as Republican as exit polls indicated in 2009, their findings would have been what I presented. Infer as you wish, but no where do I suggest that PPP's findings are incorrect or wrong. I do raise the idea, as anyone could themselves, that things could change drastically. <br /><br />As I note in the description of this site, the blog is intended to examine polls through a what-if perspective, and no part of that is meant to imply that poll findings are wrong whenever they are "reweighted." If I think a particular polls findings are bullshit, I'll say it outright. I repeat, reweighting a poll for the purposes of this website DOES NOT mean I think the pollster's findings are wrong. <br />brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16905828332573240843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7158672864576052787.post-60389005892904991432013-07-14T12:09:26.487-04:002013-07-14T12:09:26.487-04:00I think it's endearing that you're still r...I think it's endearing that you're still re-weighting polls despite that whole idea, and many of your 2012 posts, being so publicly humbled. Keep at it champ, you never know when you might stumble on a winner. XIII Warriornoreply@blogger.com
