Kapu aloha ‘ole

Kaimana,

Thank you for your post. This is just my own hypothesis but I suspect traditional polling techniques are becoming less valid and it's due to social media. In the past, polling used standard statistical errors to provide the plus/minus or percentage error. That is based on randomness and worked well for years, but doesn't work well now in my view.

We now have so many people on social media, reaching out to others and also have others responding that depending on their mood and how others react to them we end up with a situation where their opinions may change quickly.

Polls have their place. On the other hand, I'm not convinced they are useful anymore and would love to see a study about polls, their reliability and if there is a correlation with the use of social media.

I'd do it myself if I had the time!
