Polls, We Have Polls, We Have Lots and Lots of Polls!

We are drowning in polls. Many times a poll is designed to prove a predetermined outcome. Often, they don’t adequately reflect the U.S. electorate. According to Gallup, the U.S. electorate is currently 25% Republican, 23% Democrat, and 51% Independent. Consider the following:

  • Polls should be of likely voters, as they are more enthusiastic about voting based on their past voting record.
  • Ignore polls of registered voters, as they are just names on voter rolls. These are people who registered in a party but never/rarely bother to vote.
  • Ignore polls of adults. We have no idea if they are U.S. citizens, illegal aliens or tourists from other countries. If they are citizens, are they likely or registered voters? 

Just as the media is trying to gaslight by stating that Kamala Harris was never named Border Czar, they are designing polls to make you think Cacklin’ Harris is running away with the election. (Yeah, right. Just like Kamala has run away from her Indian heritage.) 

From Guy Miller of North Carolina:

“Polling organizations keep on file the names, phone numbers, addresses and polling responses of thousands of prior respondents. By selecting the people they poll, they can generate polls which imply any crazy thing they decide to build a narrative around. All the nationally-published polls are pure fiction, designed to sell a story.” 

Don't tell me the polls, show me the crowds.
