		Zogby International polls in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina, and nationally, always include all of the declared candidates - including such candidates as Ron Paul - and even a couple who are reportedly thinking about running - including Fred Thompson.
		Romney, who also shows a small lead in Zogby International’s latest poll in Iowa, leads the GOP field in New Hampshire with 35%, and distances himself from McCain and Giuliani who are tied at 19% support.
		Pollster John Zogby: ”For Romney, this is a good couple of weeks.

	CNS STORY: ZOGBY-IDENTITY Jan-21-2004 (690 words) xxxn
		Zogby conducts a biannual poll on Catholic attitudes toward a variety of religious and secular issues in conjunction with Le Moyne College in Syracuse, N.Y. His remarks were drawn from that data.
		Zogby said he recognizes that young adults typically are less committed to religion than their elders and that many develop greater understanding of and attachment to their faith later in life.
		Zogby predicted that the trend of American Catholics seeing their faith as a minor part of their identity would become more striking if the institutional church fails to adapt to calls from the laity for basic changes in structure following the sex abuse scandal.

	TAP: Vol 14, Iss. 1. John Zogby's Creative Polls. Chris Mooney. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Zogby also polled for New York's millionaire independent gubernatorial candidate Tom Golisano, declaring in late October, "I'm ready to mortgage my house and predict that Golisano comes in at least second, barring anything unforeseen." Golisano came in third with 14 percent of the vote.
		Zogby had forecast an 8.1 percent Clinton margin, and the actual margin was 8.4 percent.
		In part, Zogby is just testing messages for interest groups, which he reasonably calls a "legitimately defined methodology." But Zogby is also trading on his reputation as a legitimate, media-certified pollster to help groups disseminate inflated claims about public opinion based on inventive wording.

	Is James Zogby a "Builder for Peace"? - Middle East Quarterly - December 1998
		Zogby's effort failed and Abu Eain went on to spend four years of a longer sentence in an Israeli jail (and was released in the prisoner exchange of 1985, when Israel traded 1,500 Palestinians for three of its soldiers).
		Zogby now portrays his disillusionment with the peace process as a consequence of Binyamin Netanyahu's election in May 1996, but in fact his severe criticism of the Israeli government dates right back to the early months after the Oslo accords were signed, when others were still positive, if not euphoric, about the peace process.
		Zogby is the outsider Arabs' insider who does not lose sight of his goal in Arab politics even as he becomes increasingly involved in American ethnic politics.

	Americans for Immigration Control - Zogby Mexican Opinion Poll 2002: Report
		Zogby found that a large majority of the Mexican population believes the southwest territory of the U.S. rightfully belongs to Mexico, and that Mexicans should have the right to enter the U.S. without first obtaining U.S. permission.
		By contrast, Zogby's survey of Americans conducted within a few days of the Mexican poll shows a large majority supports reducing immigration levels and wants the military deployed along the border to protect the U.S. from illegal immigration.
		Zogby's poll found that 58 percent of Mexicans agree with the statement, "the territory of the United States' Southwest rightfully belongs to Mexico." Only 28 percent disagree, and 14 percent are unsure.

	The New Yorker: Fact
		Zogby says that there is no demographic difference between people with listed phone numbers and people with unlisted ones; other pollsters say studies have shown that people with unlisted phone numbers are disproportionately rich or poor.
		Zogby is also willing to guard the identity of his clients if they want to remain anonymous, while aapor insists that an ethical pollster will always make the sponsor known if a poll’s results are published, so that the public can judge whether or not he had a vested interest in the outcome.
		Zogby defends his method by arguing that although attitudes toward transitory issues and candidates are indeed unpredictable, a person’s relationship with a party is a fairly stable thing.

	The American Thinker (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Zogby has also come under attack this year for keeping many details of the internals of his polls private.
		Zogby has been arguing all year that undecided voters will break against the incumbent in the end, and so Kerry has a few poll points in his reserve tank that might give him the win.
		Zogby is spinning for the DNC at the moment, not just reporting what his polls may show, even if they are conducted fairly.

	The Raw Story \| Zogby responds to call for new impeachment poll
		Zogby polled Americans in June as to whether they would support impeaching President Bush if it were proved he had misled the nation about his reasons for going to war in Iraq.
		"Zogby's justifications for not asking the impeachment question are spurious -- evidenced by the simple fact that he has already asked the question,” he wrote in an email.
		Zogby says he hasn’t foreclosed the possibility of polling on impeachment again.

	Simon World :: John Zogby on the US Election
		Zogby was very clear that once they move out of a camp, a voter then tosses up between not voting or voting for "their" candidate.
		Zogby notes the Sept 20th speech to Congress and the incident when Bush was talking to a group of iron workers, police and firefighters at Ground Zero (when some called out "We can't hear you", Bush responded "I can hear you.
		Zogby sees them going like in Reagan in 1980, so that the margin is 2% but it is the same in each key state and it is in favour of Kerry, thus the Electoral Vote ends in a decisive victory.

	Mystery Pollster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		John Zogby insists it is enough that those of us who have heard more about his survey's methodology conclude that it was "honestly and objectively done." I think he misses an important point.
		First, the sponsor that funded Zogby's poll was not Le Moyne University but, according to a story in yesterday's Syracuse Post Standard, "a wealthy war opponent who [Zogby] would not name." In our conversation, Zogby said that an "anti-war" sponsor paid for the survey but played no role in conducting interviews or gathering the data.
		Zogby was willing to share the specific geographic locations where they collected data on the condition I not repeat them.

	US Election: Democracy in Question
		Zogby was concerned about the difference between some of the exit polls (surveys of individuals who have just cast ballots) and the official vote counts.
		Zogby, whose firm was not among those that provided network TV coverage of the Nov. 2 election, described the possibility of either incompetence or fraud causing the controversial deviation as "impossible."
		According to Zogby, it would have required "wrong sampling in wrong areas throughout the country," or the purposeful manipulation of data to obtain exit poll results so significantly different from the official totals.

	Zogby: Kerry 322, Bush 216 » Outside The Beltway \| OTB (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Zogby may have done OK with a national poll in 2000, but he was by far the worst pollster at the state level in 2002.
		Actually, the zogby poll isn’t quite the “online poll” that we are thinking it is, but the methodology suggests it still suffers from big problems (weighting, self-selection) that make it less than useful.
		Zogby is the house pollster for those liberal rags, the New York Post, and the Wall Street Journal, not to mention Reuters, the largest news agency in the world, all of whom care about both his methodology and bias.

	Center for Immigration Studies
		The Zogby poll reported on in this Backgrounder was one of the first to examine in detail how various segments of the population would view an amnesty.
		Consistent with other polls, the Zogby poll finds that the majority of Americans (55 percent) think that an amnesty is a bad or very bad idea compared to 34 percent who think it is a good or very good idea.
		The Zogby poll on which this analysis is based attempted to ask questions about an amnesty in as neutral a manner as possible.

	Guardian Unlimited \| US elections 2004 \| Kerry is back in the race, says latest poll
		The poll, by Zogby International, reflected the state of play in 20 swing states, and found that the surge in George Bush's support there after last week's Republican convention, was less pronounced than the double-digits suggested in two weekend polls.
		The Zogby poll says the president has made up ground in many of the 20 battleground states, but Mr Kerry retains a slim lead in most of them - enough to give him a majority in the electoral college, if the vote was held now.
		The Zogby results suggest the president's emphasis on his role as a wartime leader at the New York convention helped him reassert control in traditionally conservative southern states where Mr Kerry had been making headway before August, such as North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.

	Zogby Defense: 'My Polling Was Very, Very Good' -- 12/10/2004
		As for the presence of his communications director at Wednesday's liberal forum on Capitol Hill, Zogby said it "was only to utilize a forum to call for a respectable commission" to address the complaints of Election Day fraud and disenfranchisement.
		Zogby gained national respect with his polling accuracy in the 1996 presidential election and in subsequent political races.
		Zogby said he is calling for an investigation "not to suggest that the election was stolen or to suggest that the results would be overturned, but to collect an objective, independent body of evidence of those who believe there was a problem."

	Vegetarian Journal May/June 2000 Poll -- The Vegetarian Resource Group
		(Zogby found a 1994 figure that estimates that there are more than 193 million eligible voters.) So we can extrapolate to say there are about 4.8 million non-institutionalized vegetarian adults in the United States.
		Zogby tells us that we can also be 95% certain about the number of vegetarians and vegans.
		Per Zogby, there would be a +/- 9% margin of sampling error when looking at subgroups of 100 people.
