Amusingly enough given that his professional focus is pinpointing poll numbers as precisely as possible, in the runup to New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation primary every four years, Andrew Smith, director of the UNH Survey Center, is inundated with so many media requests he doesn’t even try to calculate them.
