It's probably just test data. Do you really think Romney could be 6th behind Bachmann?

Yeah, it's got to be test data.

Most likely. But do you remember Obama being ahead by 18 in the polls and then losing to Hitlary?

The polls don't even close until 7Pm. The guy on the project probably just had some random numbers in as test data and forgot to reset them before it went live. No big deal.

IIRC, this exact thing happened back in 08, and yes, it turned to be some kind of test.
