49. You said a poll was unverifiable because it was from the Internet...

May 2015

I posted a poll which was conducted by a polling agency, which yes is potentially more verifiable.

I am aware this is a safe haven, I posted the original SOP, I bowed out of hosting because people were uncomfortable with me as a host, so don't try the safe haven thing on me just because we don't agree. We both are on the same side.

In this same thread I have posted that I think we should focus on youth voters, as they have more ability to grow as a segment of the voting population. I consider that a solution, do you not?

I'm not festering a negative I am using data and information to make an informed decision, and to try to inform others.
