March 29, 2009 – Our 2009 Pollster of the Year award is for our work on behalf of Barack Obama's presidential primary and general election campaigns.
Barack Obama has been a Harstad Research client since 2002 on. We are proud to have helped him on his path to the presidency, including wins in numerous Battleground states, key Democratic caucuses and primaries from Iowa to Montana, as well as in his initial U.S. Senate campaign that included his upset victory in the 7-way March 2004 primary.
We also congratulate our other 2008 winning clients, including U.S. Senators Mark Udall, Tom Harkin, and Jack Reed, and U.S. Representatives Walt Minnick and Betty McCollum -- plus the Cabinet elevation of our clients Ken Salazar as Interior Secretary and Tom Vilsack as Agriculture Secretary.
We are in good company among other 'Pollie' award winners from the Obama campaign, including campaign strategist David Axelrod, campaign manager David Plouffe, media team GMMB, and our fellow pollsters Joel Benenson, David Binder and Cornell Belcher. Our sincere congratulations not only to these Obama consultants but also to the entire Obama team, volunteers and donors who mounted a world class, state-of-the-art campaign.
However, no one deserves remotely as much credit for this history-making campaign as our new President, Barack Obama himself.
