“Not trying to be critical, but I’ve never understood why some people do that.”
i should have been more clear: I’m hiding from ALL unsolicited calls, not just pollsters ... nonetheless, i like doing my itty-bitty part to throw the pollsters off and there’s no doubt that significant numbers of folks are doing this, which is one reason the pollsters have been so very wrong lately ... and there’s actually been major benefits to them being wrong:
1. it further damages the credibility of the the leftist fake stream media, ultimately diminishing their power because no one believes them anymore.
2. it seriously misleads the left into believing their own lies, even negatively affecting leftist campaigns into misallocating resources into the wrong types and geo locations.
3. it might even have won the election for Trump, because Comey said the reason he made the last minute announcement about finding the Weiner emails (and thereby rekindling the whole Hillary email conflagration at the last moment) was because he believed the polls that said Trump had essentially zero chance of winning, and therefore he didn’t think his disclosure could hurt Hillary’s chances of winning ... and boy, was he ever wrong!
Ah... Sort of an Operation Chaos.
Makes total sense to me now. Thanks for explaining it!
