Which is why I do my best to ignore polls, of any sort. Half of them are push-polls, nudging people to choose a particular opinion, and others give you a "middle of the road" option that is not present on the real ballot. And a false sense of security (or insecurity) does not help anyone.

While she's defending a dirty-tricks photoshop job by her friends, you should read about how Amy "Not My Job" Galey sat on her hands while Alamance County had the highest rate of deaths from COVID in 2020.

When Steve Ross goes on the telly to disavow this photoshopped bullshit (see below), then we can talk. Until then, STFU Amy, you're out of your element.
Photoshopping Democratic candidates' clothes so that they're wearing "Defund the Police" shirts? Absolutely disgusting, pathetic tactics from NC Republicans. Please RT to make sure all voters are aware of this BS.#ncpol #ncga #shameful@WRAL @WNCN @ABC11_WTVD @myfox8 @WXII pic.twitter.com/xdf0pYs75w

It's hard to believe this is not a crime of some sort. Not holding my breath waiting for Pope's Puppets to speak out about this, because IOKIYAR.

I used to be a polling guy
Spent many years doing research of all kinds for politicians and companies. I'm now in the "zero confidence" camp when it comes to polling. Don't know. Don't want to know. Don't care.
