Is it ironic that folks here won't trust a presidential poll result from Quinnipiac but trust a poll they produce when they like the results? Does anyone else find it odd to post about polls when just 13-14 months ago we all said they were BS?
It's easy. Just add 20 points on the oppose gun laws and delete 20 points on the support gun laws. There you go, accurate poll.
We just know that they fudge the results in their favor so if they're reporting a 9% drop in reality it's even bigger.
I've always myself used polls for data. There is no monolith here, people think differently
As well as other poster said they could be skewed but they still show trends of up and down movement over time
Have you heard of garbage in, garbage out?
