WSJ/NBC poll ? Yeah, I'm sure that polled an equal amount of the country's beliefs.
A recent poll in Hustler magazine revealed that men like to look at boobs.
A recent poll in The Vatican news reveled that no one looks at boobs.
What the heck do you think you'd get out of a WSJ/NBC poll. 90% of their audience is liberal.
How do you think the same "poll" would play out if taken by The Daily Wire?
Ive been on this earth for almost 50 years, and no one has yet to ask me my opinion on any poll.
Do you truly think that the people who read WSJ - the business journal - are liberals? I'd understand that argument if you were talking about CNN twitter poll, or something along those lines.
But this is a poll that isn't on the readers, its done scientifically to attempt to minimize the margin of error. They're calling people from all around the country -- probably around 500 or so from different parties and different ideologies, different income levels, walks of life, etc (or at least they try for this)
So your argument is invalid. This isn't a bias on the readers or anything like that.
If you would've started saying that you think polling is flawed for x,y, z reason (Ex: People who respond to polls are biased because they respond, issues with data gathering, issues of questions) then I would've said that your argument is fine. But the one you've presented isn't legitimate.
You may be right. I didn't bother spending the time to research the polling procedure for this poll.
But, I do know most polls are about as reliable as the toilet paper they're printed on.
Gee.... look at the funny math they used to score better than 50%:
"The proportion who say Congress should move to impeachment and removal has ticked up to 24% from 21%, while those who support an impeachment inquiry have swelled to 31% from 27%.
Taken together, that 55% majority backing an impeachment inquiry at minimum is the highest the NBC/WSJ poll has shown this year."
Do you think Congress should move to impeach? Answer yes.
Do you support an impeachment inquiry? Answer yes.
Cool, you now count as two votes
