Are Pollsters Censoring Ron Paul from State Polls?

USA Election Polls ^ | May 18, 2007

[ksen]

There have been 27 republican primary polls taken this calendar year WITHOUT referencing Ron Paul. And only 5 polls with Ron Paul.

I know this story is a few months old but does anyone know if this is still happening?

I looked to see if this had already been posted. I didn't see that it had.

Ping!

They also censor Walter “Starchild” Johnson. It’s totally unfair.

Perhaps the results for Paul are statistically insignificant — hard as that may be for his supporters to believe.

Well, I believe it has to do with the FACT that RP is NOT a Republican. Maybe a RINO or just a plain old democRAT dressed in republican cloths........

Ron Paul censored from poll...... not hardly.....

Here’s a list of some 15 polls or more and that Paul fellar is included in everyone.....

Let me know when Walter “Starchild” Johnson has raised over $7 million only a month and a half into the quarter.

How many of the 27 that didn’t include Paul also didn’t include other single digit candidates?

I would assume that since Ron Paul is a third tier candidate, the pollsters consider him irrelevant as do many thinking Americans.

Perhaps the results for Paul are statistically insignificant . . .

Sure, when your name isn't on the list of options you tend to have insignificant poll results.

Yes, Ron Paul is being systematically excluded from the polls due to the influence of The Illuminati and Opus Dei.

It's a wide-ranging conspiracy to suppress the Neo-Nazi vote, the 9/11 Truth Movement vote, the International A.N.S.W.E.R. vote and the goldbug vote - a bloc which, if combined, would yield Ron Paul a 110% lead in the polls.

Lets be honest here....

He’s trying, but it’s hard to settle on the right terrorist to use for a fund-raiser. He was going to use Guy Fawkes, but Ron Paul got him first.

Thanks for the link.

[ksen]

Still hasn't sunk in yet that Guy Fawkes Day is a celebration of the stopping of Guy Fawkes, eh?

[ksen]

If you are going to move this thread would you at least put it in the RLC forum?

Thanks.

The parenthesis after your handle is supposed to mean just what?

I challenge you to point to one issue on which Ron Paul's position is out of line with our written Constitution. You are certainly free not to support him, to be sure. But you should at least have the personal integrity to acknowledge his integrity.

[deport]

State polls are often harder to get to because some of the pollsters require memberships, etc. However I have seen some of them around but not publicized as much as the national polls. Another thing to remember about Paul is that according to some on this forum he doesn’t do as well in polls because many of his supporters don’t have land lines [cell phones only], thus will never be surveyed.

[Redcloak]

Really? So what’s Ron Paul doing to stop terrorists? (Besides wanting to surrender to them, that is.)
