The Minnesota Poll, Dayton sees approval drop

March 12, 2013

In yet another installment of their multi-part Minnesota Poll, the StarTribune, along with their polling partners Mason-Dixon, tested Governor Mark Dayton’s job approvals. After a whole series of issue questions, these are the first horse-racey questions they’ve released, so let’s take a look. Mason-Dixon (3/10, 9/23/12 in parenthesis): Do you approve or disapprove of Mark […]

The Minnesota Poll, here we go again

March 6, 2013

I spent a good portion of my last post on the Minnesota Poll discussing the issue of question wording and how it can effect the results of polls. This post will be similar. Mason-Dixon (3/5, no trend lines): Minnesota state law currently bans same-sex marriage. Do you think the state Legislature should or should not […]

A look at how the polling did in predicting Minnesota election outcomes

Vote NO Cake

New SurveyUSA poll shows support for amendments below 50%!

November 4, 2012

SurveyUSA’s previous poll of Minnesota caused me to write that the two amendment races had reached a stasis of sorts. This poll, and yesterdays PPP poll, completely blow up that theory. SurveyUSA (11/4, 10/30 in parenthesis, 10/15 in brackets): An amendment to the Minnesota Constitution on the ballot would require voters to show photo I.D.’s in order to vote […]

Vote NO on both Amendments

New PPP poll shows opposition to both amendments above 50%!

November 4, 2012

In their last poll of the state, and likely the last poll to be released in Minnesota, prior to the election, Public Policy Polling finds opposition to both of the amendments above 50%. First up, the Photo Voter ID amendment: PPP (11/3, 10/8 in parenthesis, 9/12 in brackets): Should the Minnesota Constitution be amended to require all voters to […]
