Pharos Research Group Polls Likely Are Fake [View all]

[Doctor Jack]

Pharos polls have been making their rounds in the past month, including one that showed Romney was within 3 points of Obama in Pennsylvania . The problem with these polls seems to be very simple, they seem to be completely made up. They claim to be doing all live interviews of large numbers of people in impossibly short amounts of time, they seem to have no source of revenue and they claim to have been doing polls for a long time but no one can find any evidence that they existed before about 3 weeks ago.
