Limbaugh Accuses Gallup of Counting Too Many Blacks in Polls on Obama

"Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh today accused Gallup of counting too many blacks in its tracking polls on President Obama's approval ratings in order to keep him above the 50 percent mark while several other polls have shown him slipping below that."

in reference to:

""Gallup has him just teetering on the little teeter-totter at 50% and they're doing everything they can -- they're upping the sample to black Americans -- to keep him up at 50% in the Gallup poll," Limbaugh said on today's broadcast. Limbaugh did not give any details about how he arrived at his conclusion about Gallup's methodology in the transcript of the show available on his website. Gallup's Nov. 9-15 survey had Obama's approval rating at 53 percent while 39 percent disapproved of his performance and 8 percent expressed no opinion. Limbaugh pointed to a Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll conducted Nov. 17-18 putting the number of voters who approve or disapprove of Obama at 46 percent each, with 8 percent undecided. That compared to the 50 percent who approved of his performance in late October, while 41 percent disapproved."
