As the Server Hamsters Struggle

I’m looking at the new Pew polling breakdown, their likely voter breakdown not only seems to under sample Hispanics by 2% compared to their own LV model, it also list the actual likely Hispanic vote as - -, as in no breakdown, at all. It’s a single, glaring omission in an otherwise thorough looking report. In the same report alongside this “data” they list the previous poll’s Hispanic breakdown as 77% to 22% but give no breakdown for this poll. It’s weird, on the surface it looks pretty unprofessional, like they just dropped the actual Hispanic numbers from consideration, lost them or refused to publish them or include them in the final calculation. I know that Obama didn’t help himself in the debate, but I’m seeing some bending over backwards with methodology to reinforce that point.
