One of the most valuable lessons remembered from Marketing and Statistical Research courses, is that there is more than enough statistical data available to confirm just about any conclusion, anyone wanting to, and capable of, "cherry picking" and manipulating available statistics to produce "accurate" results to support and confirm ANY pre-selected conclusion.
Something to keep in mind when considering the accuracy of "polls" which can be designed to produce whatever predictable results a talented "question writer" is seeking.
