Obama “the great unifier” (cough) has an unfavorability rating of 40% according to a new poll (surveyUSA - March 27/2008)

www.surveyusa.com/client/...da-4580-8169-3a89e9f40a05

Sample group:
19% ... Northeast
23% ... Midwest
37% ... South
22% ... West

Does the Northeast and West make up only 41% of the voting population?

This telephone poll appears to feature questionably unrepresentative sampling.

I don't think this answers your concern, but here's what the link provided.

There doesn't seem to be an aggregate total by 'region', or more specific breakdown.

At the link, on the left, there is a link to their methodology:

Sponsor: KABC-TV Los Angeles

www.surveyusa.com/clien t/methodology2.aspx

The following statement conforms to the principles of disclosure of the National Council on Public Polls:

How this poll was conducted: This SurveyUSA poll was conducted by telephone in the voice of a professional announcer. Respondent households were selected at random, using Random Digit Dialed (RDD) sample provided by Survey Sampling, of Fairfield CT, unless otherwise indicated on the individual poll report. All respondents heard the questions asked identically. Within the report, you will find: the geography that was surveyed; the date(s) interviews were conducted and the news organization(s) that paid for the research. The number of respondents who answered each question and the margin of sampling error for each question are provided. Where necessary, responses were weighted according to age, gender, ethnic origin, geographical area and number of adults and number of voice telephone lines in the household, so that the sample would reflect the actual demographic proportions in the population, using most recent U.S.Census estimates. In theory, with the stated sample size, one can say with 95% certainty that the results would not vary by more than the stated margin of sampling error, in one direction or the other, had the entire universe of respondents been interviewed with complete accuracy. There are other possible sources of error in all surveys that may be more serious than theoretical calculations of sampling error. These include refusals to be interviewed, question wording and question order, weighting by demographic control data and the manner in which respondents are filtered (such as, determining who is a likely voter). It is difficult to quantify the errors that may result from these factors. Fieldwork for this survey was done by SurveyUSA of Verona, NJ.

Definitions

For those survey results which include data crosstabbed by "generation" the definitions are:

Generation Birth Years Gen Y 1979 to present Gen X 1966 to 1978 Jones 1954 to 1965 Boomers 1942 to 1953 Mature 1941 and before

For those survey results which include a “Region” crosstab, the regions are defined here. www.surveyu sa.com/SUSA_Regional_Definitions_080220.htm

I'm not so sure that previous vote models would accurately reflect the high energy of this particular contest. Tons of new voters, and as we learned with ROn Paul, many of the younger voters only use cell phones. So, it's hard to tell if these sort of people are included in the survey to begin with, and perhaps where the highest participation might be.
