REMEMBER the poll last week that had Bernie Sanders ahead of Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire by three points?

No, you’re thinking. I’ve got it wrong. Sanders was up by 27.

That’s true, if you’re talking about the figures that CNN and WMUR released on Tuesday. I’m talking about the ones that Gravis Marketing and One America News Network released on Wednesday.

There were three polls of New Hampshire voters over just two days last week, according to the archive maintained by Real Clear Politics. There were three polls of Iowa voters on Thursday alone. One had Clinton up by eight, while another had Sanders up by that same margin. One had Donald Trump up by 11. Another had Ted Cruz up by two.

Over a monthlong period ending Thursday night — a monthlong period, mind you, that included the Christmas and New Year’s break — there were 11 polls in Iowa, 10 in New Hampshire and nine nationally. There were polls focused on 10 different states.
