It used to be in Australia
that politicians aimed for
underdog status.
Now the left and ABC
are singing to the US
choir sheet "Our Guy is Winning"
We will have to wait, but
polls put Biden clearly ahead.
Do polls matter?
do they have any relevance.
Do people lie when asked about their
voting intentions.
Clearly yes.
People lie to tell the questioner what they want to hear.
"They don't want lefty abuse"
But have to agree

"The ABC got all the major political events wrong for the last 5 years.
The so called 'elites' are looking like monkeys with a chip on their shoulders.It must be hard for the inner city echo chambers
to know what the real community is thinking.
On the job, I would take cadet journalists
on the street to do a poll.
It was always some local issue, swim pool, potholes
walk tracks - never politics.
Great training to get these 20 year olds from uni
asking strangers.
Certainly fun.
They learned not to be shy.
