Fascinating....another CNN poll that defies logic
Edited on Thu Oct-14-04 03:26 PM by MazeRat7
There is a poll up on the CNN homepage right now ( http://www.cnn.com for those of you wanting a link) that shows 58% of some 87,200+ respondents thought "the debates helped them decide which way to vote"... Go figure. I know these are not scientific and all that blah... blah... blah but the curious part was just last night CNN was saying that there was about 11% of voters in "undecided" territory.

So,

1) Why run this poll if you already have an answer (expect perhaps you needed another mindless poll) ?

2) Who would say yes it helped them decide (certainly not us or the freeps) ?

3) How are they possibly going to use that worthless information ?


Just asking

1. Many people probably misread the question. Although it can be deciphered,
it could easily confuse people.

2. Yes... It Reaffirmed I Made The Right Choice? Yes... I Changed My Mind?
No... I had already made up my mind and it didn't matter either way?
No... I found them to be of very little use or interest or influence?

What exactly does a Yes or No answer mean?
