Slow Poll Day...

Not much in the news polling wise today. But wait! Don't go back to sleep! There are a couple of points of interest:

A new poll in Arksansas, which was previously looking to be a pretty close state, is now coming out for Bush by about 9%. This makes sense, and the previous numbers may be looked at as errata.

Remember last week when I was complaining about how pollsters don't check on third party candidates? Well, yeah, I complain every day, and you can't be expected to remember it all, but you should anyway. It seems that Zogby has done a national poll including third parties. As expected, there numbers are small, but large enough to have an impact in swing states - and this year there will be some close races.

Finally, a George Washington University Battleground poll shows that congressional races should be a close game also. Though it's a national poll and state polls are far more significant for figuring out senate races, the number of undecideds is very high.

So maybe it isn't such a slow poll day after all. It's just that I have come to expect constant updates on a little news ticker that scrolls by my optic nerve due to that implant I wanted, and I haven't gotten it yet, so I'm a little annoyed.
