I think they're new. They ALWAYS post 400 LV, and usually are in the field any where from 2 weeks to a month. They're posting a lot of polls, and the polls seem to swing pretty widely across states, etc. I'd not put a lot of stock in any single result, nor trend. Just, as they say, "add it to the pile"
Not convinced it's even up to the low standard of 'add it to the pile'; I'm convinced that polling now is more of a true joke than actually empirical scientific evidence(I am a retired political campaign manager who had million dollar budgets with reliable pollsters that were well paid; I think these days you could blindfold yourself, and throw darts at a dartboard and trust the results equally)

Pollster is Activote.
I haven't heard of them before. Do you know anything about them?
Activote has had very bizarre results the past month or so. Guess we'll see how accurate they are in 67 days!
Pollster is one I've never heard of.. Has anyone else??
