Kentucky: Garin-hart-yang

Jonathan Meador at LEO spots the rather dubious history of Gavin-Hart-Yang, the firm of the absolutely hilarious push poll released by the Dan Mongiardo campaign yesterday.
Late last week, a North Carolina musician named David LaMotte received a survey call from Garin-Hart-Yang, the firm of Clinton pollster Geoff Garin. The call, as he reported to HuffingtonPost blogger and DailyKos diarist Paul Loeb, "started out normal enough" but soon "turned to long Hillary-praising and Barack bashing policy statements" with response options that asked him to evaluate each statement. At the end of the call, they asked, "now based on everything we've discussed, who would you vote for?"Yea, as I said before, they better hope a real independent outfit doesn't poll this race next week, because.... yea. "Message testing" is for message testing, not horse racing.
