Words of Wisdom from Rush Limbaugh (on polls)
Facebook ^ | January 19, 2018 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 08/10/2024 11:08:40 AM PDT by Kazan

The polls are nothing more than a tool for making public opinion. The polls are not taken to reflect public opinion at all. The primary purpose of polls is to depress and dispirit Republican voters by making them feel constantly like they’re in the minority.


TOPICS:
KEYWORDS: 2024; pushpolls; rushlimbaugh; trump
I'm so sick of ignorant or dishonest Never Trumpers reacting to the same push polls that have been used to undermine Republican Presidential candidates for decades.

Rush Limbaugh's wisdom on the topic endures.

All that is true. But there is yet another purpose for polls in the “new era”. And that is to provide cover to election fraud so you don’t question the fraud.

“But the polls said he/she was going to win.. so why are you doubting the election outcome ? “

I seem to recalll that in 2016, Hillary was something like “95% CERTAIN” of winning...

Then, a bit later, they cancelled the fireworks that had been scheduled for NYC’s river.

And now you can say the same about elections.

I’d qualify that by saying that Rush is correct only about polls shown to the public.

Polls are meant to drive opinion, not measure it.

I would have agreed with you until. Four years agave. Then the democrat fraud machine kicked into high gear. In the last three off year elections that is 21,22 and 2023. Republicans have been underperforming the polls. Ecause of the fraud.

Polls, especially early partisan polls are often biased to keep campaign donations coming.

This place is a real bummer these days, with the Ukrainiacs moving over to join the fifth column never Trumpers and trashing everything President Trump says or does. Then we can see article after article, “Pelosi says,” “Kamala says,” “Buttgieg says” and new polls showing Democrat victories. Doom Republic...
