Just got a survey call for the 52nd, claiming it was paid for by the Democrat Party. I don’t doubt it, just sayin’ I can’t be sure the recording was truthful.
Questions were simple:
Gonna vote?
Peters, DeMaio, or “totally undecided”?
Then the usual demographic stuff.
Point is, they aren’t even surveying the voters who are going to vote for Kirk Jorgensen or Fred Simon.
They DIDN’T say “if the vote were held tomorrow and the only two choices were Peters and DeMaio . . .” They simply asked which of the TWO candidates the voter will cast their ballot for.
Granted, I don’t expect Jorgensen or Simon to hit double digits in the primary, but still, it seems odd to conduct such a poll without including them in the options. They ARE running, and making a legitimate effort. I draw no conspiratorial conclusions for their omission — I just find it puzzling.
Well, Democrats have always been something of an enigma for me. This survey didn’t help.
