I have a theory about the presidential polling in the united states being fixed. How do i go about proving or disproving it?

I don't want to make wild accusations, but I'm starting to see a pattern of things happening early in every major election. I thought i would come to the experts of conspiracies, and see if anyone could advise me.

The vote is the only thing that represents democracy in America. However it is fixed from the get go.
The choice of candidates is fixed the media coverage of candidates is fixed, the machine tabulated vote is fixed then the counting of the vote is fixed..
Man who wrote vote fixing software testifies in court.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEzY2tnwExs

Why is there an assumption that the presidential polling is accurate?

Why not?

They are making a claim, it's up to them to prove their polling is accurate.

Is there a way to prove the accuracy of a poll?
3 jacks1000 2015-08-04
I don't know. Release the individual data? If we don't know if it is accurate or not, what good is it? How do we know they aren't just making it up?

You would need to look at the polling numbers. Make sure the sample size is correct etc.

I thought it was common knowledge that the polls are skewed to present a certain narrative. Polls are dependent on who is asking the questions, to whom they are asking them, and what particular questions they ask. Polls can be taken to prove anything is popular.

Or worse, Hillary

I don't get how Hillary can be any worse than the White Supremacist family spreading Napalm on brown skin people since the fucking 60's is the same as Hilliary. Your memory must be broke, that was the republicans who allowed the genocide of millions of Muslims.

Because she's a woman and the narrative of the xenophobic users on this sub is pretty much just white males.

It's more that I think one political dynasty is interchangeable for another. You act like they don't answer to the same people at the end of the day...

Which group of people are you talking about? When you make such a HUGE claim you have to specify what you mean. Who is "they" and who do they work for?

The(vote) what a joke,show a ID before you vote works for me.

Oh good idea, now they know how you voted among everything else they're already tracking.
2 [deleted] 2015-08-04
you have to be able to gather evidence and prove it with said evidence. Theories are useless if they can't be lifted off the ground with evidence. Evidence is generally the parts that make the sum of proof.
As an aside, polling, accurate or otherwise means little really. What counts are hard votes.

Thank you

You could do your own polling and compare the numbers.

I think you will struggle to find a regular submitter here who doesn't think the entire US electoral process is fixed. From my perspective, that would include corrupt bought-and-paid-for candidates, rigged polling, registration anomalies, rigged primaries to exclude popular but non-endorsed candidates, biased media coverage, and voting machines pre-programmed with "proprietary software" to produce certain outcomes.

Here are a few things to consider about electronic voting.
2 jasenlee 2015-08-04
What is your theory? Maybe that will help people respond. What patterns are you identifying?
1 Brodusgus 2015-08-04
10 people polled and 5 agree. That's a 50% result. Don't pay attention to polls.

Democrat primary HRC and Obama in 2007, noticed one TV result from one district vote numbers and percentages transcribed, numbers were easy to do a quick comparison.

I have a theory that people in the United States are such sheep and so easy to manipulate that the polls don't have to be fixed.
