those polls never mean anything because different areas and different segments of the population have (generally) wild variance in their candidate of choice and if you're not equally representing every large group in the country then ur poll, like i said, means nothing. especially when it's "what would you do in a voting situation" bc not all the ppl they asked are actually voting.

that being said, this is how they do it all the time and so you can at least look at it from the context of what we have seen generally
ok i dont know what to tell you if you dont actually read a post
