@BernardKeane What difference to the accuracy of any one poll would the polling frequency make? You don't know what you're talking about.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@TheBigShip fortnightly at least gives you trend figures over time and reduces impact of rogues. monthly just gives you 11 snapshots a year.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@BernardKeane But makes no difference to the accuracy of any individual poll, rendering your 'dud' judgement flawed & misleading.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@TheBigShip alas, no - Ipsos is a dud, very prone to rogues, and the last one had a very bad flaw in the NSW sample.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@TheBigShip meantime Newspoll and Essential held absolutely steady over the same period. Dud polling.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@TheBigShip but if you think the electorate is that volatile, you have a weird view of your fellow citizens.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@BernardKeane Sadly, the electorate is just that - volatile, and easily influenced by the media, of which you're a part.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@TheBigShip actually, no, the electorate isn't volatile, because it's disengaged and has little interest in politics or what the media says

@BernardKeane little interest in politics perhaps, but still easily influenced by tabloid headlines, or simplistic analysis, like 'dud poll'0 replies 0 retweets 0 likesThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
