After a day of wrenching testimony from Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford — who has accused him of sexual assault in high school — more Americans say they believe Ford's account over Kavanaugh's denials, according to an NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll released Wednesday.
In choosing who is telling the truth, 45 percent said Ford is, up from 32 percent ahead of her Sept. 27 testimony. A third (33 percent) said Kavanaugh is the one telling the truth, up slightly from 26 percent before he testified but not as much of a rise as for Ford.
The daylong hearing appears to have been influential in helping people decide who was telling the truth. Before the hearing, 42 percent said they were unsure whom to believe. Now, just 22 percent are unsure.
The results represent a shift from 1991, when more people said they believed then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas over Anita Hill. Hill accused Thomas of sexual harassment in the workplace. A 1991 CBS/New York Times poll, also conducted days after their dramatic, televised Capitol Hill testimonies, found that 58 percent believed Thomas more, as opposed to just 24 percent who said Hill.

For this to be published today, the poll predates the daily erosion of her sworn testimony over the last several days, meaning the most damning refutations have not been accounted for.
People are getting stupider
And Hillary’s gonna win!
I believe. Oh I believe. So what? From another dumb arse poll.
...and the polls said Hillary had a lock on winning the election. How did those polls work out?
Didn’t these bums tell us Hillary had a 90+ percent certainty of winning? I don’t believe a word they say.
Nope. Oh, and NPR delenda est.
Kavanaugh had the edge over his accuser in TV audience size

testimony was a week ago- they’ve not done any polls post testimony?
If anything it would be 50/50 I think.
That same poll said Hillary Clinton was going to win by a landslide. My personal poll, about 89% believe Judge Brett K. I wonder where they get their phone numbers, probably from the DNC
Propaganda is the right word.
“According to Harvard CAP/Harris Poll: 60% of voters support the confirmation of Kavanaugh if the FBI review finds no corroborating evidence, including 40% of Democrats and 58% of Independents.”

“But once the voters are told that the named witnesses deny any knowledge of the allegation, this shifts to 57 percent who favor confirmation...”

Not a single poll other then this one reflects this result. Pure made up propaganda
I don’t participate in polls.
My BS meter is pegged.
Mark Simone today interviewed someone called Rhonda Sher or Sherer and she said that 10 fem friends, half of which were Dem, ALL trashed VictimFord. All. 100%. VictimFord is an embarrassing puleing jackass to many women including women with a REAL attack in their history.
This is the kind of poll that’s not going to be repeated, it’s not tied to an election, nobody’s credibility is on the line, so they can say what they want without fear. And that’s what they’re doing here. Either heavily skewing the results the way they want them to go or making the numbers up out of whole cloth.
All I know is I don’t believe Dr. Fraid, nor do my friends.
More like Marxist poll
Is so it is a product of the indoctrination they received in the leftist government schools and ultra-liberal universities.
no they don’t.
