(14,511 posts)2. Poll means nothing,
57% of likely voters does not mean most Americans favor an FBI investigation.
This is click bait.

The poll is pure bullshit. Note the connection to OAN.

(27,891 posts)4. About "Rasmussen Reports" as a polling outfit:
Rasmussen Reports is an American polling company founded in 2003. The company engages in political commentary and the collection, publication, and distribution of public opinion polling information. Rasmussen Reports conducts nightly tracking, at national and state levels, of elections, politics, current events, consumer confidence, business topics, and the United States president's job approval ratings. Surveys by the company are conducted using a combination of automated public opinion polling involving pre-recorded telephone inquiries and an online survey. The company generates revenue by selling advertising and subscriptions to its polling survey data.
Rasmussen has been questioned for its methodology and for an apparent bias toward the Republican Party. In 2024, 538 dropped Rasmussen from its polling averages and analysis, saying Rasmussen failed to meet 538's standards for pollsters.

The poll cited in the article is useless, IMO.

Think. Again.
(19,552 posts)9. It's a far-right pollster published in a far-right paper.
We are asked by the DU Terms of Service not to post far-right talking points.
