Here are three polls on politics: the winner on the first presidential debate, the upcoming vice-presidential debate, and candidates’ releasing tax returns.
I’ve never run more than one poll at a time, but there are a few current worth pursing at the same time.
Obvious point: these polls are not – and have never been presented as – representative surveys of a community.
(Many of the polls that I publish are intentionally one-sided or simply fun, e.g., extraterrestrial visits, absurd behaviors, etc. That’s one reason the results are often so lopsided, but whatever the result, it’s not a representative sample of the community.
One serious remark: if the City of Whitewater intends to use polling to survey residents, as she is now paying to do, those methods and results are reasonably and legitimately the subjects of a serious critique.)
VP debate is on at weird time but may record it
The vice presidential debate is Tuesday; the next presidential debate is Sunday, October 9th – perhaps that’s the odd time you meant.
Candidates shouldn’t have to release returns but it’s been practice so long it’s expected.
The second Presidential debate occurs during a Sunday Night Football game (NY Giants @ Packers!!!) on NBC… Trump didn’t want that, remember…? “RIGGED”!!! 😉
