(TCP)CHICAGO – Opinion – The latest averages continue to show that polling data will move the vote the way the averages show things are going on in the “minds” of the American electorate. What we are not certain of regarding the organizations contributing to this data is how well the polling questions are framed. Are the questions and the interviewers completely, scientifically unbiased? We suspect in some cases they are not. A few of the organizations we do not trust are Pew, CBS and CNN.
