CNN Reporter STUNNED After Finding Out Democrats Use FAKE POLLS To Boost Campaign & RIG Elections!
YouTube ^ | 08/24/2026 | Black Conservative Perspective

Posted on 08/24/2026 3:03:47 PM PDT by SmokingJoe

This video, presented by the Black Conservative Perspective, critiques the prevalence and impact of fake polling in political campaigns and its amplification by mainstream media. The host argues that such polls are often fabricated to depress turnout for opponents and artificially boost support for favored candidates, particularly those on the far left.

Key themes include:

The Median Strategies Case: The video highlights a specific instance where a firm called Median Strategies released bogus polls, including one showing Karen Bass with a significant lead in the Los Angeles mayoral race and another for a gubernatorial candidate in Wisconsin. The company later admitted these were fake and part of a "social experiment" (0:00 - 1:44).

Media and Political Responsibility: The host expresses frustration that these polls are frequently reported on by left-leaning media outlets and shared by candidates without independent verification, allowing misinformation to influence public opinion and even prediction markets (1:53 - 11:58).

Criticism of Institutional Bias: The host asserts that major polling institutions systematically tend to overestimate support for Democrats and underestimate support for Republicans, a trend they have observed over their six years of covering politics (13:00 - 14:03).

Economic and Social Commentary: Beyond polling, the video touches on local Los Angeles politics, specifically questioning the council's decision to repeal bans on homeless encampments based on what the host describes as a "fake" poll claiming 96% community support (3:05 - 6:53).

Same fake polls were deliberately created out of thin air in Minnesota concerning governor's candidate Hong who was supposed to be leading by 10 points in the primaries only to lose. Anyone remember the Ann Selzer "poll"in Iowa in 2024 where Trump was getting crushed in Iowa?

Watch it.

Democrats think they have a right to cheat.

They think all of civilization is rigged against them.

The fake also polls also make the stolen elections seem legit. That is one of the reasons for them.

Postal workers busted stealing checks from mail routes & selling them in $23M fraud case.

If they can steal your checks, what do you think they can do with your ballots?

They only got caught because banks audit $$. There's ZERO mechanism to audit CA ballots.

I remember that GIF from 2020 of a Yogi postal gal dumping a large box of ballots into a dumpster.

This is good. More people know about fake polls by the demoncRATS the more people will question the validity of these polls.

Fake polls are a method of suppressing republican turnout and enhancing democrat turnout. It's just a method of psychological manipulation. Think of a football team, everyone wants to root for a winner so if your team is having a winning season the statidum gets filled. If your team sucks then you're not motivated to pay the money to buy a ticket to see the game, you're not gonna go see them if you expect them to lose but if they're having a good season you'll pay the money to see them win. It's the same thing with the fake polls, it's meant to dampen republican turnout. Remember all the stuff of how Hillary had it in the bag and Trump didn't stand a chance? That was intentional media manipulation designed to keep republicans at home on voting day because Trump supposedly stood no chance of victory, so why even bother to get out and vote?

I first started noticing it around the year 2000. It seems like most of the major polls consistently inflate the democrat by about 4%.

It should be called election interference and those doing it should be charged with a crime.

Yes. And when their leading politicians (like Pocahontas, can't remember her real name) claim that PDJT is the most corrupt president in American history, they are trying to de-fang our side when we point out the corruption of Biden, or Obama, or Clinton. Or whomever is to come.

Most polls have an inherent flaw. Most rational decent people who value their privacy are less likely to take an unsollicited call from a total stranger and discuss with them their political opinions.
