August 6, 2012Our View of the Third Party Option in Presidential Polling
Over the past couple of weeks, many people have asked why we're not including Gary Johnson by name in our tracking poll (we do include "some other candidate").
Some people believe that including Johnson will show a deep level of support for a third party candidate. Some even believe he could generate enough polling support to qualify for participation in the Presidential debates. Others say he could steal votes away from one of the leading candidates and ultimately impact who will win the race.

                            December 13, 2011The Rasmussen Reports Track Record
2010-- In December 2009, a full 11 months before Election Day. A Democratic strategist concluded that if the Rasmussen Reports Generic Congressional Ballot data was accurate, Republicans would gain 62 seats in the House during the 2010 elections. Other polls at the time suggested the Democrats would retain a comfortable majority. The Republicans gained 63 seats in the 2010 elections.

                            November 28, 2011The People’s Money, New Book by Scott Rasmussen, Pre-order Today!
For decades, American voters have elected candidates who promised to reduce government taxes and spending, but government spending has gone up every single year since 1954. Voters don’t understand how this has happened, but recognize that the result is a massive budget deficit that threatens to pass along the burdens on to future generations. Politicians blame voters and claim that there is no public support for specific spending cuts. In his new book The People's Money: How Voters Will Balance the Budget and Eliminate the Federal Debt, Scott Rasmussen shows that claim to be a lie.
The People’s Money, to be released in January, demonstrates the surprising public support for specific measures to spend less and balance the budget, solve the financial crisis, and fix the American economy. You can pre-order Scott’s book starting today.
