Re: Are both sides of the presidential election faking the polling results?
24 hour news cycle, where a "Story" lasts only 48 hours. Basically, News ADD.
There are many ways to do what you say tricking people where they will tend to agree with something if its slightly toward their opinion.
Example: Guns kill people, if you like guns then you favor murder, do you favor murder?
O Yes i favor murder
O No I do not favor murder and think guns should be banned.
Granted this is an way out there example and some are more subtle than this, but you get the idea. Im talking more about the polls that are straight up "Who will you vote for" or "Who is stronger on economic policy" type polls.
