Polls can be misleading for several reasons.

1. Only a tiny percentage of a population are polled.
2. Pollsters can target a group of people they know will respond to questions in a certain way.
3. Questions can be structured to elicit a specific response.
4. Pollsters can disregard answers they dislike.

“Polls can be misleading for several reasons.”

Good point. It’s important to look at the methodology employed - agreed. But polls can also tell us important information and are not always based on manipulation.

For instance, doesn’t your gut agree with the findings of this poll - about half the country is really willingly ignorant about what socialism is?

Our task is set out before us - whether these numbers are 10 or 20 points off or not. But I hear what you’re saying about polls and we need to often treat them like we treat the MSM - with GREAT caution and general disdain because of their manipulation.
