Did my own election poll for Massachusetts senator

[plainpainter 217]

whipped out my prob and stats book and conducted my own poll

Martha Coakley is leading Scott Brown by 14% +/- 4% with a 90% confidence interval.

Go Martha Go! Keep that democrat 60 vote edge in the Senate!!!!!!!!

Daniel,

I'm a bit curious as to how one can conduct a valid election poll by studying a book.

He had all the voices in his head vote.

I was just brushing up on my probability & stats book - I was a math major in college on top of being a physics major.

We'll see how good my forecast is tonight....

That pole worked about as well as the whole hopeandchange thing...

Say goodbye to "Kennedy's Seat'" I love it!

[offduty 25]

LMAO

Didn't think that old fart would ever die, but never saw a republican taking his seat. I think the public is finally getting tired of Hope and Change.

Now that the Kennedy influence is gone on that side of the country maybe we can get a Republican governor in California. :)

Well I guess my career as a pollster is shot.....

You should get a job as pollster for the Democratic party!

[HotShot 34]

I would much prefer a conservative for governor... we already have a governator that calls himself a Republican. He's more of a RINO.

[Rick2 42]

Soooo very happy we won.

Interesting political dynamics taking place. Virginia, a traditional swing state, elects a Republican governor in Nov. 2009. My home state, N.J., is a usual Democratic walk over. We elected a Republican governor in Nov. 2009 over an incumbent Democrat sitting governor. Not unknown, but I can remember but 3 Republican governors in my lifetime and I'm on the other side of 50.

Now Mass. A true blue state in the Northeast elects a Republican senator. Interesting if this trend continues through the elections this November.

Seems the independent voters have had enough.

Yes that's true. The old saying still holds true:

Life is like a $*^# sandwich,

the more bread you have,

the less $*^# you eat!!
