Poll says no MOE to the current Congress—83 percent disapprove


I just saw this NBC/WSJ poll graphically displayed on the nightly news.  In the small print I saw “MOE +/- 3%” which threw me for a moment wondering if this data was being disrupted by the leader of the Three Stooges.  But then I realized this was the margin of error.  For a helpful detailing of MOE that breaks things down to simpler terms—a giant jar of a 200 million jelly beans—check out this white paper by Roper Center.  Despite the inherent uncertainty of polls (estimated by MOE), the politicians in Washington cannot discount this clarion call (a record percent!) for change.
