Loading ...The polls published on LD Blog are not scientifically valid. The samples were not taken in a way that permits one to generalize the results beyond the people who voted. That is, the data shown here simply reflect the opinions of the visitors to LD Blog who voted on the individual polls. Please don’t make anything more of them than that.
Thanks for the conversation
