The new Rasmussen Poll, one of the most accurate in the 2016 Election, just out with a Trump 50% Approval Rating.That's higher than O's #'s!
Vad menas med det sista jag fetade? jag antar det refererar till Obama?
Ja, # = numbers.
Så bättre än Obama's numbers.
Det som utmärker Rasmussen är att de mäter LV (Likely Voters).
De flesta mäter RV (Registered Voters) eller all adults.
Vill man veta vad USA:s 18+ befolkning tror (som inkluderar illegala och fångarna som inte rösta

) kollar man på All Adults.
Här hur Gallup förklarar det.

But we almost never report this figure. It's unrealistic to do so because we know that a percentage of these national adults not only won't vote, but can't vote -- because they are not U.S. citizens or are not registered to vote in their local areas.
Citat:
So we narrow down the national adult sample to registered voters. This is the group who in response to a standard poll question say they are "registered to vote in their precinct or election district.
Citat:
Comparing across national adults, registered voters, and likely voters, one can see that at this point, shortly after the Republican National Convention, the more we winnow the sample down to voters with the highest likelihood of voting, the better McCain does. This is not unusual. The Republican candidate often benefits from a turnout advantage.
Here's an example. Gallup's final poll before the 2004 election showed the following:
Registered voters
George W. Bush 46%
John Kerry 48%
Likely voters
George W. Bush 49%
John Kerry 47%
Kerry was ahead among registered voters by 2 points, while Bush was ahead among likely voters by 2 points.
The final election result? Bush won the popular vote over Kerry by about 2.5 percentage points, almost exactly what our likely voter estimate predicted. Had we reported only registered voters, we would have estimated a Kerry victory. In other words, had all registered voters turned out in 2004, Kerry would have been elected president. But all registered voters didn't turn out. There was a Republican advantage among those who did turn out. And Bush won.
Så Gallup är kanske bra för att mäta trender, that's it.
Vill man vete vem som vinner valet kolar man på LV eller i värsta fall på RV (men då addera 2-4% till en kontroversiella kandidag)
