One thing I haven't heard much about in the wake of both UK and Frances victories over their far right/fascist movements is about how the polls predicted far right sweeping victories when the exact opposite happened. In both cases the polling was 100 percent useless. Something to think about the next time a poll drops with information they want us to believe vs what really is the likely case. Tune out the noise, focus on the prize and #Voteblue in Nov.
@Lucky188 i think the polling was immensely valuable.
it made peeps afraid enough to fucking vote.
i can only hope it will work in canada. we need reasonable peeps to vote in droves against pp.
@Lucky188 The UK polling was predicting a significant Labour victory for months before the election. There was no *hint* of a possible right wing victory here.
@Lucky188 also something to think about: when good and normal people of differing political hues band together, we *vastly* outnumber the lunatics, racists and fascists. We have the power #politics
