you went through a thorough review. you have taken it on the chin. i ve been among those that have been very publicly critical of what gallup was doing over the years. let s start with what you believe is the biggest problem you faced and that happened to be it appears number one on your list is this likely voter screen. i would even broaden that up and say likely voter process. how do we actually figure out who is going to turn out and vote. that s a moving target. that s changing. we re using a model that was developed decades ago. it s probably outdated. probably needs to be changed. and our analysis of where we were, we were three points romney leading among registered voters and model moved it down to our final estimate which was one-point for romney. that was too much. if we had just moved the numbers like the average of other polls, we would have been significantly more toward obama. that feeds to be looked at. we re going to use new jersey ....
