Survey tracks how voters ID themselves, i.e, Dem, Repub, Independent, Other. Uses same 15,000 survey each time to have apples to apples comparison. In August 2010 Dems had edge 35% to Republicans 33.8%, rest would be predominantly unaffiliated which is interesting in and of itself. Fast forward to August 2012 however, and the Republicans increased to 37.6% while the Dems dropped slightly to 33.3%. It's a significant shift if it holds to Election Day.
