A YouGov poll conducted in the wake of the verdict found that 27% of voters said the conviction made them less likely to vote for Trump, while 26% said they were more likely to vote for him and 39% said the verdict “makes no difference” in how they’ll vote.

    The results were even more stark along partisan lines, with 50% of Republicans saying they’re more likely to vote for Trump. Meanwhile, 44% of Democrats said they’re now even less likely to vote for him.

    This poll is nonsensical.

    Polls are for pundits.

    Vote in November.

      Agreed. I don’t know anyone who has been polled. And it still seems much of it is through land lines. My 90 year old grandmother doesn’t have a land line any more. Though that’s largely because of my parents who also don’t have a land line. Who are these people with landlines and why are they so important.

        People have tried to poll me. I ask them to remove my number from their list. I’m not sure exactly sure who they are polling, but it’s mainly people who want to be part of polling, which I assume skews the results.
