yes, it is

It doesn’t make any sense to use that as a control variable as THAT is what will skew the poll.

‘let’s see where this state is on the election…let’s make sure we ask 50 trump supporters and 50 biden supporters…’

That sets you up for a close poll result.

I think they are asking ‘who did you support last election’ to look for a change in the mood of the state.

Geography seems like a good variable to adjust for - to make the poll population reflect the general geographic population of the state, sure.

It’s not grocery stores that are the issue. They pass their cost for items to consumers while gaining a small profit. The issue is with the 10ish corporations that manufacture our food supply that are squeezing Americans to make record profits on relatively flat sales.

she’s going after grocery stores, in particular discount grocers who buy in bulk. Walmart, Target, Aldi’s, Costco, etc.

What do you think is going to happen when they regulate that Joe’s gro has to get the same price as large bulk buyers? Let me help you, Joe’s prices won’t drop, but the discount grocers, no longer having a discount, their prices will rise.

And by what logic do they demand large bulk buyers do not get discounts while they demand Medicare discounts for drugs? Shouldn’t Phannie’s Pharm be paying the same thing as Medicare? Do you think Phannie will take Medicare when it costs her money to supply needed drugs to patients?

you do realize this “poll” is reported on an excel spreadsheet with no questions, no crosstabs, no control variables at all.

its meaningless.

not meaningless, you just dont like the results which is fine.

the polls was reported to 538. and duly noted on this thread.

the pollster in question uses AI and conducts in depth interviews.

they have been doing polls in the UK for several years.

Polls don’t really mean anything until after the conventions. I’m going off of vibes personally.

completely meaningless

“100”
“some”

yet right in sync with redfield.

they use AI to project the interviews they take.

Funny platform from the party that offered thousands of dollars to those buying EVs, realizing the money would immediately go to jacked up prices by car companies.
