He is known for both his phone polling and interactive, Internet-based polling.Contents1 Polling track record2 Education3 Personal life4 Political activities5 External link[edit]Polling track recordZogby correctly predicted the cliffhanger result of the 2000 presidential election for George W. Bush, in contrast to most other pollsters who had expected Bush to win easily. In 2004, however, his predictions failed to materialize. Before polls had even closed in the 2004 presidential election, Zogby predicted a comfortable win for John Kerry (311 electoral votes, versus 213 for Bush, with 14 too close to call), saying that Bush had this election lost a long time ago, adding that voters wanted a change and would vote for any candidate who was not Bush. While admitting that he was mistaken, Zogby did not admit any possible flaws in his poll methods, insisting that his predictions were all within the margin of error. Despite his personal prediction, his final poll showed Bush with a one point lead over Kerry, making him one of the winners among pollsters accoding to the New York Post and Boston Globe.[citation #160;needed] Meanwhile, opponents charged that his calling the race for Kerry while polling was still going on may have been a cynical attempt to depress the turnout.[citation #160;needed]Zogby has had better success with other elections, both domestic and foreign. He correctly called the Quebec provincial election of 1998 for the Liberals, the 2001 Israeli election for Ariel Sharon, the 2000 Mexican election for Vicente Fox and again in Mexico with the victory of Felipe Calder?n in 2006.[edit]EducationZogby is a graduate of Le Moyne College and Syracuse University.
