Waak says polls understate Obama's support in Colorado

While a new poll released Monday shows John McCain leading Barack Obama in Colorado, state Democratic Party Chair Pat Waak said she’s wary of polls undermeasuring Obama’s popularity.

“I’ve seen his polling, and one day it shows him ahead by five to nine points (and) the next day they’re even,” Waak said. “And I keep asking about all of those young people that I see out and around this state – hundreds of them have been working on the campaign. I don’t think they’re getting polled because they’re walking around with cell phones.

“And you can model all you want to, but I don’t think you’re getting a real clear view of what’s going on,” she said.
