Breaking: National polls in. Breaking: National Poll Numbers

Survey USA announced poll numbers today for the upcoming 2008 presidential campaigns. The latest survey was taken from July 1-5 and sampled 1087 like voters. The margin on error is +/- 3.9%.

Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Total
Lisa: 22% 3% 15% 14%
Homer: 15% 1% 15% 9%
Bart: 15% 1% 14% 9%
Krusty: 3% 31% 14% 16%
Maggie: 23% 2% 12% 15%
Stewie: 19% 2% 14% 10%
Mr. Burns 3% 60% 16% 27%

Clearly Mr. Burns and Krusty are benefiting from the high concentration of candidates on the ideological left. Burns and Krusty have far more reach in the middle and on the ideological right.

From previous polls, it is clear the Mr. Burns is the candidate that voters most trust on the issues of economy and national defense. Lisa is the candidate most trusted on education, while Bart is, surprisingly, most trusted on health care.  ¶ posted by Patrick @ 2:35 PM
