Regression ss for pub634

Weiner’s support fell from 26 percent last week to 16 percent in Monday’s Quinnipiac University poll. Last week’s survey was taken largely before Weiner’s latest scandal was revealed. “He’s in a free-fall,” said poll director Maurice Carroll. “He can’t win. He simply can’t win.” Standing side by side with his wife, Weiner admitted last week that he had tawdry online exchanges — including X-rated photos — with a then-22 year-old Indiana woman after he stepped down from Congress in 2011 over similar behavior. He later said he had similar exchanges with two other women after his resignation. Forty percent of voters said his behavior disqualified him from consideration as a candidate, up from 23 percent last week. The poll of 446 likely Democratic voters shows Weiner trailing City Council Speaker Christine Quinn (27 percent), Public Advocate Bill de Blasio (21 percent) and ex-city comptroller Bill Thompson (20 percent). The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.6 percentage points. In a statement, Weiner said “polls don’t change anything.”
