Nobody? Really? Why do you keep making up stuff that is so easily proven wrong? There are at least 4,400 of us that not only want it, but we don't consider it a waste of time.

That and my personal knowledge and experience in polling. If you know anyone who has expertise in polling, give them this data and ask them what it means.

You can't guarantee anything. You should know better.

It's my opinion based upon what I see and hear from my many fellow DPA members. It's my opinion, but it's fact based.
