Default All these political polls ?

No not polish people voting, the polls that are about saying conservatives have the better run etc, well,no-one has asked me or my family and we will vote differently to their runaway party etc,so how can these polls be anywhere near close ??

Because they ask a lot of people and take an average...

...the bigger the sample, and the more varied the sample the more accurate the poll.

Im just keeping an open mind, then staying up all night on Thursday til the result is announced lol.
I would rather know the truth, rather than statistics etc.

Thats what i mean,its all well asking age group 20-40 40-80 etc but if they ask 20 yr old toffs etc then,well,kinda 1 sided

asking the louts on moss side etc,(and getting them to vote)then i`d believe the polls a bit more

Nope, no one I have ever asked has ever said they have been questioned about such things.

They're all b*llox as people might not be honest etc when polled vs what they do on the day + the poll sample is way too small. Take it with a pinch of salt IMHO.

It must give some kind of an indication but we won't really know until Friday.
