Bull shit. Never studied stats did ya. The freaking Z would need to be so big. Go ahead, hit me.

So we polled via telephone, 1000 voters.

The questions are so easily picked apart.

They are so easily directed to get results.

So what about all the people without telephones, they get left out?

So what time of day?

How many people hung up on you?

What demongraphic did you capture?

How many blacks, whites, mexicans?

How many housewifes who were so freaking bored at home they wanted to spend time talking to you?

I love polls because I always say something different every time they calll just to screw them up. How many other people do that? Who can prove it?

Polls are the weakest form of statistical measure.
