  6. #Politics #Ideology #Elections #ElectionPolls: "There's always some excuse when it comes to the polls: in 1952, George Gallup called the election a tossup, but it went for Eisenhower in a landslide. He took out a full-page NYT ad, trumpeting that he was right, actually, because he wasn't accounting for undecided voters.

    Polling is ultimately a form of empiricism-washing. The pollster may be counting up poll responses, but that doesn't make the prediction any less qualitative. Sure, the pollster counts responses, but who they ask, and what they do with those responses, is purely subjective. They're making guesses (or wishes) about which people are likely to vote, and what it means when someone tells you they're undecided. This is at least as much an ideological project as it is a scientific one:"

  11. It really gets me that "journo" pundits nearly always get it wrong but when an Astrologer gets it right - that's just luck & when they get it wrong they say it shows it's BS. Well, how about #MSM predictions? Does it now show they're ALL BS? I think so.

  16. I've been thinking about the reliability of coming #ElectionPolls, the ones we get in media. As we all know they're lucky to predict 50% of what they say will happen & yet people still follow them. We don't hear that they're 50% of the time wrong & what a joke they are.
    BUT get an astrological prediction on an election result & if they're correct, people say - just luck. If they get it wrong people say - see it's all bullshit!
