Harris is borrowing from 'Republican playbook' as she leads Trump in new national poll
Pollster Frank Luntz cited a new poll showing Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump for the first time since Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race.
You're viewing a single thread.
I like how this and the Reuters/Ipsos poll that has her lead dropping are both on the front page right now.
Don't pay too much attention to polls. They're broken as hell right now.
Anyone ever been polled? I haven't and nobody I know has either.
I think the Internet ruined polling they dunno how to collect data correctly anymore they're probably stuck with boomer brains on the topic or something
I definitely got a poll a few years ago from a GOP senate candidate that was a bunch of questions like “How TERRIBLE has Joe Biden’s economic policy been???”
It was literally damn near impossible to select responses that actually conveyed any reasonable favor toward a Democrat policy or action. Now granted, this wasn’t a national pre-election poll that any reasonable aggregator would include, but it’s still a reminder that statistics can be whatever you want.
That's just a "push poll". They're only used for marketing/propaganda and fund raising. I doubt they even look at the responses.
A guy in the mall polled me one time but he just asked me questions like "name something you groom yourself with"
Duh, a bride, obviously.
I've been called and texted a bunch. I only answered 1 call last night and answered their polling. I should have mentioned Lemmy and the fediverse and the only place I get my news, so they would focus more on it, but I didn't think about it in time.
I live in Tennessee, and I don't think we've even had a statewide poll since Biden dropped. I wasn't contacted for that one. But - everyone knows which way Tennessee's gonna go, so it's not like it matters. I'd be curious to see if Harris moved the needle, though.
Same here in Massachusetts. Last time I checked in 538, the latest poll had Biden in the lead
I have been getting texts
I've actually gotten two poll phone calls and one mailer this year. The pollsters showed up as "Suspected Spam - Poll" on my phone.
I've been getting about 2 polling calls a week for the past few months.
I got polled about two weeks ago. I only answered the phone because I was expecting a call from a new number.
I have been. I get contacted fairly regularly for polls.
