About polls:

We recently had a federal election here in Canada. Afterwards, when the result was not what the polls had predicted*, people began to phone and write in, to say they'd deliberately lied when polled. One person said he lied because he wanted the Conservatives to think they were going to win, and then lose. Twisted civic humour at its best. Interestingly enough, the news story was THAT the polls were off, not WHY.


*the polls predicted a Conservative government, by a small minority. Instead, the Liberal party won - a minority government, true, but but a much larger minority.
