They use "likely voters" in polls because people that don't vote aren't considered important to the poll. Generally they ask the people if they are likely to vote. It's very, very problematic.

You are so right about the PA poll numbers. But most places, especially DailyKos, does that for every person they like r don't like, choose the most flattering or unflattering poll. It is really annoying, mainly because I know they know better.
