And the envelope please
Here are the final results of the major independent
polls that have surveyed California voters on the
recall. The date of the last night of polling is in
parentheses. The replacement results are listed in
this order: Schwarzenegger, Bustamante, McClintock.

Field (Oct. 1) 57-39; 36-26-16
Los Angeles Times (Sept. 29) 56-42; 40-32-15
Knight Ridder/NBC (Oct. 4) 54-41; 37-29-15
CNN/USA Today (Sept. 27) 63-35; 40-25-18
Survey USA (Oct.. 5)* 57-43; 46-34-13
Chamber of Commerce (Sept. 25) 53-41; 35-31-17
Knowledge Networks/Hoover (Oct. 4)** 59-41; 43-30-13

The Public Policy Institute of California, usually a
major source on California public opinion, last polled
on Sept. 17 and is thus not reliable at this stage in
the race. For the record, the poll had the recall
winning 53-42 with Bustamante leading Schwarzenegger
28-26 and McClintock at 14.
