The most recent New York Occasions ballot is so tousled that Stephen Colbert had a discipline day trashing it.
Colbert mentioned:
As an illustration, this weekend, The New York Occasions printed a ballot that confirmed Trump main Biden by 5% amongst registered voters.
Okay, now I’m much less anxious in regards to the candidates and extra anxious in regards to the psychological competence of the voters. Someone ought to give us a cognitive check. However don’t panic. As a result of the methodology is so off, it led one member of the punditocracy to look at: “There is something wrong at the New York Times.”
To get extra tales like this, subscribe to our publication The Day by day.
Yeah, there’s something incorrect on the New York Occasions and it’s referred to as connections. So, “Turncoat” and “Windsock” are phrases ending in clothes, however “Lawsuit” isn’t? My streak ought to be at 25 and you can be listening to from my attorneys, you bastards!
However one other factor. However one other factor. That New York Occasions ballot is a large number. It discovered Trump successful the feminine vote by 1%, when Biden carried ladies in 2020 by 11 factors. In some way I doubt Trump has gained again over 12% of girls along with his empowering message, “I’m a rapist.”
This ballot is so off that it says 12% of Democrats assist Dean Phillips, main Dean Phillips to truly tweet: “When a NYT/Siena poll shows me at 12%, you better believe it’s flawed. Only 5% even know who I am.” That… That’s so unhappy. He thinks 5% of individuals know who he’s.

The most recent NYT ballot was loaded with pink flags, which I not too long ago mentioned in our publication, The Daily.
Colbert was proper.
It’s unimaginable to see how Trump gained over ladies voters by taking away their proper to regulate their very own our bodies whereas embarking on his platform of rape and defamation.
The truth that the New York Occasions printed such a flawed ballot means that the aim of the ballot was to not inform or achieve perception, however to make the information as a substitute of reporting it.
The New York Occasions ballot is so unhealthy that even late-night comedians are making enjoyable of it.
