Eddie, my guess is that absent any knowledge of methodological flaws in either poll we take the average of the two. That’d be 47.5% in favour and 42% opposed.

On the other hand, the University of New Hampshire Survey Center had their own poll and got the following results:

But in the most recent University of New Hampshire Survey Center poll, more than half - 55 percent - of state residents were in favor of gay marriage, while 39 percent opposed it.

The Boston Herald? It may as well be the NY Post or the National Enquirer!

Heaven forbid even 50% + 1 person in New Hampshire are against gay marriage and it passes. What a catastrophe for the “will of the people” that would be.
