PPP Polls Voter Fraud Expectations in OH, FL, NC: Lousy Question, Troubling Results

This afternoon PPP released some troubling results of weekend polling in Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania on the subject of voter fraud.

The question was:

Do you think Democrats will engage in voter fraud to ensure that Barack Obama wins the election, or not?

Do you think Republicans will engage in voter fraud to ensure that Mitt Romney wins the election, or not?

The rest of the questions were all demographics, party ID, etc.  The voter fraud question was pretty much all there was to this poll.  And these are the results:

-In Ohio 62% of Republicans think Democrats will engage in voter fraud to make sure that Barack Obama wins. 50% of the Democrats think that the GOP will engage in voter fraud to ensure a Romney victory.

-In Florida 60% of Republicans think Democrats will engage in voter fraud to make sure that Barack Obama wins. 55% of the Democrats think that the GOP will engage in voter fraud to ensure a Romney victory.

-In North Carolina 69% of Republicans think Democrats will engage in voter fraud to make sure that Barack Obama wins. 51% of the Democrats think that the GOP will engage in voter fraud to ensure a Romney victory.
