Polling Madness

If you cannot get enough polls, the website Pollster.com is the place to go. They provide a running tally of all polls for Governor, Senate, and House races.

In the Maryland Governor's race, O'Malley has a 5 point lead in the average of the last five polls. He averages a 6 point lead in the last ten polls. Ehrlich's highest level of support in all of the polls in only 47%. Not good for an incumbent.

In the Senate race, Cardin averages an 8 point lead in the last five polls and a 7 point lead over the past ten polls. Steele's peak is a 48% in one September poll, but nothing higher than 44% in every other poll.

They do not include information on any House races in Maryland. David is in Germany right now trying to explain polling and our mid-term elections to our European friends. I wonder if they are as confused as I am?
