5. Why I Never take Polls Seriously |

Edited on Wed Sep-14-11 09:32 AM by fredamae
Polls are only as reliable as the honesty of the questions asked in the geographic area they poll.
Pollsters carefully word their questions to garner a specific response from the chosen target group they are most certain to get the sought after responses. It adds to the Illusion that something that Is Not-Is in order to sway and direct the preferred broader public message/opinion. FWIW, I NEVER get polled, do you?
