Stick it to the NYT
To the editor:
The article "Nation's Direction Prompts Voters' Concern, Poll Finds" (March 16) is presumptive discussing Ralph Nader's influence on John Kerry's support, saying Nader's candidacy is "potentially lethal" and implying that Nader's inclusion in the race knocked down Kerry's poll numbers 5% (+/-3%).
But Nader picked up 3 of his 7% from people uncommitted to Kerry. Statistically, Nader could have drawn just 1% from Kerry. And some perspective on who was polled: 18% were not registered voters, 29% did not vote in 2000, and 17% wouldn't commit to voting this November. If these people left Kerry for Nader based on the wording of a question, was Nader really shown "potentially lethal" to Kerry in this poll? In an article pondering many of the complexities affecting the outcome of the presidential race, such unsupported, unqualified assumptions have no place.
Sincerely,
Mark Zipkin
