It's a business. It operates like any business.
I bag on a lot about the abysmal state of online polling and the various rw Conservative image management firms that own them, but the main idea I'm trying to get across is that even though media platforms their polls endlessly and CBC & CTV have pollsters on tv every night as "analysts", polling is still a business that partners with and gets the vast majority of their income from corporations.
