Please go to page eleven.


If you "unskew that poll" to the more likely 90% -10% margin the president will enjoy among African Americans in that state the poll results would show the president winning by a percent or two instead of trailing by three.


If I was conducting a survey and discovered such counterintuitive results I would surely check my sample.
