So, how accurate were the polls that CQ Politics brought you the day before Tuesday’s primaries? We went back and looked at those released on Monday, excluding Tuesday so that no one had an extra day of polling over the others. Here are the numbers, judge for yourselves.If you want to see the fuller descriptions of the polls in each state, click on the Texas and Ohio links.
