Which users are most likely to lie in Kal's polls?
Brandon, I expect GOP voters to lie to telephone and exit pollsters.
GOP voters generally have a dislike of the media and I think this makes them more likely to lie just to F*ck with them.
DEM voters generally like the media as the media is more friendly towards DEM candidates and issues. This makes them less likely to lie to the pollsters.
Brandon, is that the lie you expected me to tell.

For some reason, I can't cast a vote in my polls. When I try to vote it kicks me to the home page.
But as I said, I believe GOP voters are more likely to lie to pollsters.
COS DEM stated he voted incorrectly on the first poll.
With all that in mind, the poll results as of the time of this post...By a margin of 16 to 1, we believe GOP voters are far more likely to lie to pollsters.

Since GOP voters lie more, that would skew poll results.
So a 50/50 Obama/Romney tie would more likely be a 49/51 or 48/52 Romney lead.
That's something to think about for those of you who make predictions on OC.

Interesting theory, but we have statistics on how much polling agencies are off on a partisan basis, and your theory doesn't bear up. Historically, more polls are off a bit to the right compared to the actual results, not to the left. That includes PPP, with a slight rightward bias.
Your theory may fit exit polls, which seem to be skewed to the left.

As just a nice guy, I step aside and let someone pass. Especially so if it's a female. I don't turn my back to them as it seems rude, I tend to turn my back to the wall and smile or make a courteous comment.
Brandon, you seem to have a neurotic fixation with the positioning of your genitals when stepping aside for someone or out sitting longer on the toilet while someone else is sitting on the can to wait them out.
That's not a criticism, just a comment.

Lol. I only posted it because someone posted a picture on facebook earlier of that very scene from the movie, and I thought it was lulzworthy enough for a poll.

It's not really "50/50 random" so much as it depends on what angle I'm at as I approach them.
I'm not going to awkwardly twist myself around just to make sure my ass or crotch is in their face. I'm generally more concerned about getting where I'm going.

Honestly I don't find our bias figures accurate.

Three issues I have with our bias figures...
1. They use numbers from Primaries.
2. They use number from blowout races. Pollsters can too easily manipulate blowout races to smooth out any bias.
3. Older races should be phased out.
IMHO any race that is won by more than 20 points should be excluded from bias calculations.
