Who lies to pollsters?

Who lies to pollsters? - 10/06/20 12:42 PM

I already voted Trump but whenever a pollster calls I say I am undecided and leaning Biden. I'm getting all sorts of mailings from Democrats now which is costing them money and providing me with a good source of mulch. I believe many are doing the same and the pollsters are in for another big surprise in November, at least I hope so.

I usually don't answer the phone when it's a number I don't know. Everytime I do answer it's someone wanting money or who I'm voting for which I tell them I won't answer. Like you I've already voted absentee and for Trump. The Dems have a huge war chest of funding behind them and my mailbox is full of crap for their candidates.
I hope you're right on the surprise in November but I'm nervous and it doesn't look good for the Senate right now either. I don't care who this pisses off but Trump's team has run a terrible campaign, they need to focus on what he's done and they slow played the campaign too long. He hasn't helped either and shot himself in the foot repeatedly by his actions.

It isn't costing "them" money. It is costing the American taxpayer money...and they know how to waste it.

Why is it only republicans can shoot themselves in the foot? lol

Democrats can say whatever they want, true or not and they get a pass.

I couldn’t care less about policies at this point. I’m voting for the folks that are putting people in their place and I don’t care what language they use.

I consider answering poll questions via phone a SPORT.....!

First I give all the usual conservative responses, including support for Trump.

Then, when they get to the demographic info, the fun begins. When they finally hang up, they are still wondering why a gay, black, registered Democrat is voting for Trump!

May as well have some fun with it...

I always lie about who I am voting for when I get a call or an email poll... I now have 5 or 6 of my friends doing the same thing. We always say Biden or some other Demosocialist.

I would just tell him I'm looking for the Democrat and that's what makes them happy. But I live in Indiana and I don't believe there or concern on who will voting for. Besides if I tell him I'm voting for the Democrat it wouldn't be a lie I'll be voting for the New York Democrat that turned Republican just shortly before he ran for president. I really hope Trump wins with and wide margin but I believe you'll be so much voter fraud that won't be possible. It doesn't matter who they claim wins either side's going to accept it and it's going to be a nasty mess.

I was getting the democrat texts like yours. I finally just texted back "Vote Trump 2020 and 2024". Haven't gotten a text since.

I just don’t respond, but I’m liking the idea of screwing with them. I’ve been getting the texts too. I have a bad feeling about this election. I think Biden just might win because of how loud and obnoxious the left has been the last four years. The media is all left wing driven and because people just take in what they happen to see and don’t care to dig for actual facts we have a whole lot of voters who believe in half-truths, misinformation and straight up lies.

Biden made a pretty good speech today from a civil war battlefield calling for unity he certainly didnt look like his normal doting self.Very well done.

He proved that he can still read a teleprompter, but I doubt he won over any undecided voters. He, nearly, let his gun grabbing plan out of the bag saying "we don't need an armed malitia in the streets".

I always ask about Biden’s coke sniffing son and his great job with the foreign gas co. They always hang up.
It’s a sport. Lol

Trump has run a terrible campaign? What campaign??? I haven't seen a Trump ad in weeks! How does he expect to win? With no opposition, Biden keeps looking more confident as he airs ad after ad. He's being funded by Soros, Bloomberg, and other billionaires.

Trump has pulled his MN ads. Either he thinks he's got MN in the bag or he has given up on MN. In numerous MN polls, Biden leads him with a 9 point average.

Smart to not waste money in MN. He has to defend TX and AZ these days. Normal, stone, lock, guaranteed R states. Get that .22 ammo quick!

Trump isn't running ads on any channels. I watch a lot of different channels such as WGN out of Chicago,CMT, Comedy Channel, ID, Discovery, etc. Lots of Biden ads, but no Trump ads.
My wife got an new Trump ad sent from a friend of hers on Facebook. It featured singing of the Sinatra song, I Did It My Way. Pretty impressive!

Humm, I can’t remember ever getting a call for a poll. You guys do see that the vast majority of these polls have less than a 1000 responses, usually 600 or so.
