I got several calls from polling firms about presidential politics. When they asked my race and I said white, they hung up, usually without any thanks for at least answering the phone. I was tempted to tell them Black or Asian to see what happened, but never did.

Well, I used to work for a polling firm and called and bothered people with surveys. If we had more white respondents than needed, we only would take surveys from whatever demographic was lacking in representation. This was always near the end of the survey.

next time tell them whatever you think they want to hear ... the more inaccurate the polls, the better ....
