    Polling is very easy to manipulate. Cherry picking a region to reflect your out look. Requesting voluntary participation usually leads to hardcore people or people fucking with you. Most Americans won’t answer truthfully if you knock on their door or call them about a poll. Hell I had canvassers come to my place to see if I would listen to a Democratic pitch. I said no even though I voted Democrat.

    Take one statistics class and you will see it is a very pseudoscience process.

      Again, because polling doesn’t agree with what you want reality to be, its “fake news”. There is a group of people who when reality disagrees with how they wish it was, the call it “fake news”.
