We have a lot of work to do.

Winning the election is job #1. Job#2 is ending Trumpism. This con artist and his crew's hated of democracy needs to be embarrassed out of the Republican Party. Otherwise the cancer will come back.

So one point above the margin of error is a surge? mucifer Aug 2024 #10

The surge is the movement from the previous poll, which is significant Fiendish Thingy Aug 2024 #12

I thought the definition of MOE was that any lead greater than the MOE is considered to be statistically significant. TheRickles Aug 2024 #32

MOE applies to the results for each candidate, not the margin between them Fiendish Thingy Aug 2024 #33

Got it - thanks! TheRickles Aug 2024 #35
