TNS is a common denominator of polsters. These guys apparently do the number crunching. How difficult would it be for a mole or two to cause the polls to be skewed?
Probably impossible. You have to be a committed socialist to do the polls. An honest person wouldn't have a chance to infiltrate and try to make the polls fair and accurate. I like the way you think though. Keep Trying.
Well earlier today I heard that alot of people that are polled don't even tell the truth! Some did so because they feel its no one's business to know how they vote and I would imagine that some just want to appease the caller to get off the phone so they just agree with them and I am sure some of the pollsters have their own agendas as well. I take polls with a huge grain of salt.
Skew the polls to what end? To feel good? Or, to keep voters home? Really, what would be the point?
It appears the polls have been skewed this cycle.
