So apparently the CNN poll the other day that some dismissed because it had a 4 point R lean, actually had a 4 point D lean.

Correction: The CNN/ORC Poll topline document released Tuesday contained an error, numbers showing the partisan makeup of the sample on the methodology page were transposed. The correct party makeup of all adults in the poll is 32% Democratic, 28% Republican, 40% independent or something else.
Anyone notice the newest Emerson polls and how badly Clinton is doing in the northeast?
Clinton:
+17 in MA (Obama +24)
+21 in Vermont (Obama +36)
+3 in RI (Obama +28)
+4 in NJ (Obama +18)
CT is the only state where she has a margin similar to Obama's in 2012.
She's also down 5% in Maine's 2nd congretional district which Obama won by 3%.
Emerson polled landline telephone users only. Landline phone users are becoming a lower and lower percentage of the national electorate, especially the national Democratic electorate, each and every month, as more and more people switch to using mobile phones only for phone service.
This poll seems to stay within a certain range - I wouldn't put much weight in small daily fluctuations unless one of them starts building a substantial lead 4%+.
