Won’t happen. The law disfavors prior restraint against the press. Pentagon Papers case.
Plus, a false negative poll number won’t be defamation. The theory of a poll is relative popularity measures, and are not a question of character.
The press is trading on whatever belief and support it has among the public. Heck, even National Enquirer has people believing in Batboy.
Separate from the rank dishonesty of the press we also have, compounding the issue, rank dishonesty by the candidates, surrogates, and advertising. There’s no remedy at law for broken campaign promises.
In light of recent information, the DNC and others worked to undermind our newly and duly elected president and administration; the following is certainly arguable. That being the prior restraint of published surveys/polling is justified under the landmark decision in Near v. Minnesota, 283 U.S. 697, 51 S. Ct. 625, 75 L. Ed. 1357 (1931).
In that decision, the Court identified three types of publications against which a prior restraint might be valid: those that pose a threat to national security, those that contain obscene materials, and those that advocate violence or the overthrow of the government.
In these fake polling numbers, we see the DNC, and those working with the Democrats, continuing the effort to overthrow the wishes of a majority of the country by every hook and crook imaginable. In the case by push-polling voters.
Under these circumstances, I, for one, contend publishing presidential election polling data be suspended until the winner of this election is determined. Secondarily, this fakery WILL inflame the radical left (i.e., advocating/promoting violence as mentioned in the decision above) if Biden isn't declared the victor.
Just my 2 cents, FWIW.
