There was a pop­u­lar Polling com­pa­ny that ran a poll about what peo­ple think about polls, it was fun­ny in a way because it con­firmed what how most peo­ple feel about Polls, the thing about polls is that they are by nature sub­jec­tive sim­ply because the com­pa­ny run­ning the poll are in a bad posi­tion for actu­al­ly gath­er­ing valid data.

Think about it this way if you tru­ly expect to be able to gain objec­tive data from a poll you would have to do it either in per­son or in such large num­bers that the ques­tion bias would no longer apply to the data.

Polls sim­ply are not reflec­tive of the truth because they are sub­ject to so many dif­fer­ent issues, from the area codes where calls are made to the nature of the ques­tions and the ways that they are asked.
