Its a nonscientific poll, so the results don't mean squat.
Please compare and contrast a scientific poll vs. a non scientific poll. I'm betting you wish the results "[didn't] mean squat," but they actually do. The fact that the spread is so large definitely means something. Is it 100% accurate? Probably not, but it's not meaningless!
I dont get why POPs matter anyways, they ask the opinion of people who probably have the wrong idea about whatever it is they're being polledIts a nonscientific poll, so the results don't mean squat.
Argh I wish I knew how to use multi-quote. I'm still thinking you're against the Arizona immigration law. MSNBC tends to attract a more liberal audience, and therfore an audience that is more likely to be against the immigration law. The fact that it i so one sided does say something. It says that those who are at least somewhat informed have a tendancy to support the law.
This makes sense. Also, thanks for the help with multi-quote.Even though MSNBC might attract a more liberal audience, the poll is open to spamming from various sources such as reddit.com, free republic, 4chan, etc.
In other news. This poll http://www.debatepolitics.com/polls/76226-relgion-do-you-belong-too.html states that majority of people are atheist/agnostic and of "other" religious beliefs. However, government census data tells us that Christians are still the largest religious group... The MSNBC poll means nothing and is not scientific. It doesn't accurately portray the public opinion of the Arizona bill.
All the polls I've heard of on this issue have been way over 50% (most 60-80%) in favor of the law. Another case of big gov ignoring the American people.
The MSNBC poll is a shocker though. Could be something fishy there. They are constantly bashing any form of securing the border. I've seen numerous bashings of Gov. Brewer and anyone who agrees with her. Maybe the MSNBC audiance isn't as biased as the network itself, but 95%?

Well since its non-scientific lets say its + or - 20% points. :roll:
We need to get these free-loading, arrogant, law-breaking people the hell out of our Country!!!
If its nonscientific, it could be +-0% to +-95% and nobody could be sure.
Dude, its msnbc, not a warez or porn site. And MSNBC slants to the left of the aisle too.
Sounds like USA elections.I dont get why POPs matter anyways, they ask the opinion of people who probably have the wrong idea about whatever it is they're being polled

No, it says that the majority of the people who voted at that poll voted in support of the law. That is all it says.
We could interpret these results to mean lots of things.
We could decide that the right wing is so desperate to be right that they hired some skript kiddies to bomb the poll.
We could intuit that self-important right wing pundits advertised this poll and thus flooded it with their listeners and readers.
We could wonder if perhaps some random anonymous asshat decided to screw with the poll and thus give you a six-foot erection with a giant cheeseburger on the end of it.
Just saying.
