How accurate were the pollsters in the 2006 Senate races? Great graphic. |

1. Polls show the general direction an election will go. |

Although some apparent winners become losers, the winning party will generally do better than the polls indicate. Most winners also win by a larger margin than the polls indicate in most cases. This definitely was the case in the 2000 and 2004 election in Texas. The winners won big and the losers lost big.

2. Rasmussen is the best. His Bush approval ratings are rubbish though. nt |
