I do not trust Cuomo who has to have his hence men do his nasty campaign work at least with Paladino what you see is what you get and can be trusted to speak the truth. He has my vote.
What a load of crap any Marist poll is. It is basically just a shill for whatever liberal cause it wants.,
Should this be considered a ‘push poll’ and therefore reduce you organizations creditbility?
Perhaps you should run a poll asking if the people of New York consider Andrew Cuomo as career political who would lack the will to make real changes in this state.
By way of clarification, a push poll is not a poll at all but rather, as detailed by the American Association of Public Opinion Research, a political telemarketing technique where telephone calls are used to canvass the electorate, providing them with inaccurate information in the guise of a poll. The purpose is to see how the “information” impacts voters’ choices in an election. This survey by the Daily News and the Marist Poll was based upon a representative sample of the New York electorate to measure, not influence, public opinion. In this particular instance, actual statements of the candidate were used to see how voters reacted to the statements.
The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion is an independent survey research center at Marist College. Founded in 1978, the Marist Poll has an excellent reputation for accuracy. The organization does not conduct any surveys for political candidates or political parties.
